VASP attenuates lipopolysaccharide-induced renal injury via modulation of TLR4 signaling, inflammation and oxidative stress.
BACKGROUND Vasopressin (VASP), also known as antidiuretic hormone, is a peptide hormone that helps regulate water balance and vascular tone. Emerging evidence suggests it also modulates immune responses and circulatory dynamics. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is found in the cell membranes of Gram-negative bacteria. It activ...
