Vasopressin spielt in den folgenden Prozessen eine Rolle:

G-protein coupled receptor protein signaling pathway – cell-cell signaling – generation of precursor metabolites and energy – signal transduction – vasoconstriction – water transport – diuresis – elevation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration – grooming behavior – locomotory behavior – maternal aggressive behavior – maternal behavior – multicellular organismal water homeostasis – negative regulation of female receptivity – negative regulation of transmission of nerve impulse – penile erection – positive regulation of cAMP biosynthetic process – positive regulation of cell growth – positive regulation of cell proliferation – positive regulation of cellular pH reduction – positive regulation of glutamate secretion – positive regulation of prostaglandin biosynthetic process – positive regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure – positive regulation of vasoconstriction – regulation of blood vessel size – regulation of natriuresis – social behavior – hyperosmotic salinity response – positive regulation of gene expression – response to ethanol – response to nicotine – response to organic cyclic substance – response to stress – response to testosterone stimulus – smooth muscle contraction – temperature homeostasis

Vasopressin ist wie folgt lokalisiert:

extracellular region – soluble fraction – dendrite – extracellular space – stored secretory granule
