1 Lixivaptan, a New Generation Diuretic, Counteracts Vasopressin-Induced Aquaporin-2 Trafficking and Function in Renal Collecting Duct Cells. lixivaptan aquaporin 2 Homo sapiens
2 In MCD4 cells, clinically relevant concentrations of lixivaptan (100 nM for 1 h) prevented dDAVP-induced increase of cytosolic cAMP levels and AQP2 phosphorylation at ser-256. lixivaptan aquaporin 2 Homo sapiens
3 These data represent the first detailed demonstration of the central role of AQP2 blockade in the aquaretic effect of lixivaptan and suggest that lixivaptan has the potential to become a safe and effective therapy for the treatment of disorders characterized by high plasma vasopressin concentrations and water retention. lixivaptan aquaporin 2 Homo sapiens
