CP/CPB and DM are both associated with up-regulation in V1 receptor expression/localization in human myocardium. Vasopressin may induce coronary arteriolar constriction via V1A. This alteration may lead to increased coronary arteriolar spasm in patients with DM undergoing CP/CPB and cardiac surgery.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
