Description : Which ONE of the following is true concerning Antidiuretic hormone(ADH)? 1) Carbamazepine potentiates it's release 2) Ethanol potentiates it's release 3) It circulates in the blood bound to neurohypophysin 4) It is a cyclic octapeptide 5) It is synthesised in the posterior pituitary
Last Answer : Answers-1 ADH is a nonapeptide manufactured in the paraventricular and supra-optic nuclei of the hypothalamus and released from the posterior pituitary. It acts on the collecting ducts improving ... agents such as thiazides and SSRIs may potentiate its release. Ethanol usually inhibits release.
Description : Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) - (1) inhibits the secretion of growth hormone by the pituitary (2) inhibits the rate of heart beat (3) causes the muscular walls of the arterioles to contract that simulates the reabsorption of water from the kidney tubules (4) causes an increase in the blood pressure
Last Answer : (3) causes the muscular walls of the arterioles to contract that simulates the reabsorption of water from the kidney tubules
