- Abstract
Background. It has been suggested that urinary excretion of the vasopressin‐dependent water channel of the kidney collecting duct, aquaporin‐2 (AQP2), reflects renal vasopressin action and might be used clinically. It is unclear, however, what relation exists between urine osmolality and urinary excretion of AQP2 (UAQP2) and it is unknown whether UAQP2 is influenced by hyperosmolality of urine or tubular flow rates.
