This substance is produced in the supraoptic nucleus, and an analog of it upregulates the release of vonWillebrand factor from endothelial cells. Inappropriate production of this hormone can be treated bytolvaptan or conivaptan. Pigs contain a similar compound that has a lysine residue instead of an arginineresidue. Like ACTH, its overproduction is a symptom of small-cell lung cancer. Diabetes insipidus resultsfrom a deficiency of this hormone. It consists of nine amino acids and is produced by the magnocellularneurons of the hypothalamus. It inserts aquaporins into the collecting ducts of the nephron, and likeoxytocin is released from the posterior pituitary. For 10
