Abstract excerpt
Autosomal dominant neurohypophyseal diabetes insipidus (ADNDI) is an inherited disease caused by progressive deficiency of the hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP) that typically becomes clinically apparent in the first decade of life. The genetic locus of ADNDI is the arginine vasopressin-neurophysin II (AVP-NPII) gene and mutations that cause ADNDI have been found in the nucleotides encoding the signal peptide,...
