关于 Avpr1a

功能概要

该基因编码精氨酸加压素的受体，精氨酸加压素是一种神经垂体激素，参与利尿抑制、平滑肌收缩、肝糖原分解刺激和垂体促肾上腺皮质激素释放的调节。该受体代表三种 G 蛋白偶联的精氨酸加压素受体之一，其通过血管和肝组织中的磷脂酰肌醇-钙第二信使系统发挥作用。 [RefSeq 提供，2008 年 7 月]

This gene encodes a receptor for arginine vasopressin, a neurohypophyseal hormone involved in diuresis inhibition, smooth muscle contraction, liver glycogenolysis stimulation and regulation of adrenocorticotropic hormone release from the pituitary. This receptor represents one of three G protein-coupled arginine vasopressin receptors which functions through a phosphotidylinositol-calcium second messenger system in vascular and hepatic tissues.
