vazopresin
hormone secreted by the posterior pituitary gland (trade name Pitressin) and also by nerve endings in the hypothalamus; affects blood pressure by stimulating capillary muscles and reduces urine flow by affecting reabsorption of water by kidney tubules [hormon, ki ga izloča zadnja hipofiza (trgovsko ime Pitressin) in tudi živčni končiči v hipotalamusu; vpliva na krvni tlak tako, da spodbuja mišice kapilar in zmanjšuje pretok urina s spreminjanjem reapsorpcije vode v ledvičnih tubulih]
