MedlinePlus - Arginine vasopressin resistance
Accessible overview of symptoms, inheritance, and the AVPR2 and AQP2 genes. It supports the statement that about 90% of familial cases involve AVPR2.
Probenecid (PB) to Treat Hereditary Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus (NDI), ADPKD Treated With Tolvaptan, and Severely Polyuric Patients With Previous Lithium Administration (SerendipityPB1)
A study record that readers can check for its current status. Please avoid calling it an available treatment.
Ifosfamide-Induced Partial Arginine Vasopressin Resistance Responsive to Vasopressin/Desmopressin and Amiloride
This is a case of partial arginine vasopressin resistance following the sixth cycle of doxorubicin-ifosfamide-mesna therapy for recurrent spindle cell sarcoma of the thigh. Polyuria and symptomatic hypernatremia started by the second day of the two-day chemotherapy cycle.
The natural history of untreated X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus with mutation in the vasopressin V2 receptor gene
A research paper for a more technical “For Researchers” area. Please describe it as a study of the condition, not a treatment advance.
International expert consensus statement on the diagnosis and management of congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (arginine vasopressin resistance)
Congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI; also known as arginine vasopressin resistance) is a rare inherited disorder of water homeostasis, caused by insensitivity of the distal nephron to arginine vasopressin.
What is arginine vasopressin disorder resistance (AVP-R)?
Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus is a rare condition that results in excessive urination and thirst. It occurs when the kidneys no longer respond to the hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP). Symptoms occur when the kidneys do not respond or are resistant to AVP — a hormone that triggers the kidneys to conserve water.
MedlinePlus - Arginine Vasopressin Receptor 2 Gene
Explains the receptor and its role in water balance.
NIH - What is diabetes insipidus?
Explains the types of diabetes insipidus and the blood and urine tests clinicians may use.
