AVPR2 (Arginine Vasopressin Receptor 2) is a Protein Coding gene belonging to the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family, predominantly expressed in renal collecting duct cells. Its ligand arginine vasopressin (AVP/ADH) activates Gs signaling, increasing cAMP and promoting aquaporin-2 (AQP2) membrane translocation to enhance water reabsorption. Diseases associated with AVPR2 include X-linked recessive Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus (NDI), and its antagonist tolvaptan is used clinically for hyponatremia and heart failure. Our AVPR2 stable cell lines have been validated in cAMP assays to support your drug discovery programs.
