1 1992649 These increases (MCR of AVP and plasma vasopressinase) may explain certain syndromes of transient diabetes insipidus (DI) that complicate gestation.
2 8476482 Transient diabetes insipidus of pregnancy (TDIP) is associated with elevated activity of vasopressinase, a plasma enzyme that opens the vasopressin (AVP) ring to produce a linear peptide that we have named vasopressinase-altered vasopressin (VAV).
3 8476482 AVP was incubated with vasopressinase and VAV was separated from residual AVP by high-pressure liquid chromatography.
4 8334746 Serum vasopressinase activity was measured during one of the pregnancies affected with diabetes insipidus and compared with that obtained between 26 and 38 weeks from 13 normal pregnancies.
5 11981039 The region of IRAP fused with glutathione-S-transferase [GST-IRAP(55-82)] was incubated with lysates from 3T3-L1 adipocytes, leading to identification of long-chain, medium-chain, and short-chain acyl-coenzyme A dehydrogenases (ACDs) as the proteins associated with IRAP.
6 15231875 Cardiac GLUT4 content is reduced by 65-85% in IRAP knockout mice, suggesting that IRAP may regulate the targeting or degradation of GLUT4.
7 15231875 In G4H-/- hearts, IRAP content was reduced by 60%, but the expression of other vesicle-associated proteins, namely cellugyrin, IGF-II/mannose-6-phosphate, and transferrin receptors, secretory carrier-associated membrane proteins and vesicle-associated membrane protein were unchanged.
8 15231875 Although insulin caused a discernible increase in cell surface IRAP content of G4H-/- cardiomyocytes, cell surface IRAP remained 70% lower than insulin-stimulated controls.
9 15231875 Immunoabsorption of intracellular vesicles with anticellugyrin antibodies revealed that IRAP content was reduced by 70% in both cellugyrin-positive and cellugyrin-negative vesicles.
10 20953066 Diabetes insipidus resulted from the increased activity of vasopressinase, caused by hemochromatosis-induced liver dysfunction, the presence of which was confirmed between the pregnancies by liver biopsy and identification of the HFE gene mutation.
