Copeptin is a peptide composed of 39-amino acids that is produced primarily in paraventricular neurons and the supraoptic nucleus of the hypothalamus[1].
Copeptin may aid in the folding of vasopressin during transport. Vasopressin has a direct antidiuretic effect on the kidneys and also causes constriction of peripheral blood vessels. Copeptin can be used as a vasopressin surrogate in clinical test[2-4].
In vivo£¬In In the analysis of systemic anaphylaxis, the body temperature of the model group (Compound 48/80) was significantly lower than that of the control group. Compound 48/80 induced increased serum concentrations of HIS, TNF-¦Á and IL-8[8]. Compound 48/80-induced MC degranulation produced anticonvulsive effects against PTZ-induced epileptic seizures by extending the onset time of both myoclonic-jerk and generalized tonic¨Cclonic seizure, and by shortening the duration of generalized tonic¨Cclonic seizure[9].
