A metabolically stable apelin-17 analog decreases AVP-induced antidiuresis and improves hyponatremia

Apelin and AVP have opposing effects water balance in humans and rodents. Here, the authors report that a metabolically stable apelin-17 analog, by acting at the kidney level, reduces AVP-induced antidiuresis and improves hyponatremia in rodents, demonstrating a potential approach for treating water...
