Molecular Pharmacology of Human Vasopressin Receptors
1998
Vasopressin (AVP) and oxytocin (OT) are cyclic nonapeptides whose actions are mediated by activation of specific G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) currently classified into V1-vascular (V1R), V2-renal (V2R) and V3-pituitary (V3R) AVP receptors and OT receptors (OTR). The cloning of the different members of the AVP/OT family of receptors now allows the extensive molecular pharmacological characterization of a single AVP/OT receptor subtype in stably transfected mammalian cell lines.
