Desmopressin Acetate
Selective Vasopressin V2 Receptor Agonist | High-Purity Synthetic Analogue
Product Description
Desmopressin Acetate is a synthetic structural analogue of the natural hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP). Through strategic molecular modifications—specifically the deamination of 1-cysteine and the substitution of 8-L-arginine with 8-D-arginine—it exhibits significantly enhanced antidiuretic potency and prolonged metabolic stability.
Superior V2 Receptor Selectivity
Unlike natural vasopressin, which acts non-selectively on both V1 and V2 receptors, our Desmopressin Acetate is engineered for extreme V2-selectivity. This allows researchers to isolate antidiuretic and endothelial responses without the interference of V1-mediated vasoconstriction.
| Compound | V1 Activity (Vasopressor) | V2 Activity (Antidiuretic) | Selectivity Ratio (V2:V1) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Natural AVP | 1.0 | 1.0 | 1 : 1 |
| Desmopressin (Sunrise) | < 0.01 | > 3.0 | ≈ 3000 : 1 |
