ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -ADH enables the kidneys to retain water in the body. The hormone is produced in a region of the brain called the hypothalamus. It is stored and released from the pituitary gland, a small gland at the base of the brain. When diabetes insipidus is caused by a lack of ADH, it is called central diabetes insipidus.

Detailed explanation-2: -Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) induces water retention by increasing the permeability of nephrons. Its influence on water permeability occurs primarily by regulating aquaporin 2 water channels in the distal tubules and collecting ducts of the kidney (Kwon et al., 2001).

Detailed explanation-3: -Antidiuretic hormone is made by a part of the brain called the hypothalamus and is secreted into the blood by the pituitary gland. Certain types of tumors may release high amounts of antidiuretic hormone, which can cause low levels of sodium in the blood and the body to retain water.

Detailed explanation-4: -Antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin, is a small peptide hormone which regulates the body’s retention of water. It is one of only two hormones secreted by the posterior pituitary gland.

Detailed explanation-5: -These sensors talk to your brain and the pituitary gland releases ADH into your bloodstream. When ADH makes it to your kidneys, it signals them to conserve water and produce more concentrated urine. The water your body retains has effects on your body, including: Diluting your blood.
