Usage

General Description

"(3,5-DIIODO-TYR2,ARG8)-VASOPRESSIN" is a synthetic peptide hormone that is a modified form of vasopressin, also known as antidiuretic hormone. It is composed of the amino acids arginine and tyrosine, with iodine atoms attached to the tyrosine residue at positions 3 and 5. This modification enhances the hormone's potency and helps it resist degradation by enzymes in the body. "(3,5-DIIODO-TYR2,ARG8)-VASOPRESSIN" functions as a vasopressor, which means it constricts blood vessels and raises blood pressure, as well as an antidiuretic, which means it reduces urine production. It is primarily used in medical settings to treat conditions such as diabetes insipidus, vasodilatory shock, and certain types of bleeding.
