UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D009481	Neurophysins	Carrier proteins for OXYTOCIN and VASOPRESSIN. They are polypeptides of about 10-kDa, synthesized in the HYPOTHALAMUS. Neurophysin I is associated with oxytocin and neurophysin II is associated with vasopressin in their respective precursors and during transportation down the axons to the neurohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, POSTERIOR).

D010870	Pineal Gland	A light-sensitive neuroendocrine organ attached to the roof of the THIRD VENTRICLE of the brain. The pineal gland secretes MELATONIN, other BIOGENIC AMINES and NEUROPEPTIDES.	Epiphysis Cerebri,Pineal Body,Corpus Pineale,Gland, Pineal,Pineal Bodies,Pineal Glands

D014668	Vasotocin	A nonapeptide that contains the ring of OXYTOCIN and the side chain of ARG-VASOPRESSIN with the latter determining the specific recognition of hormone receptors. Vasotocin is the non-mammalian vasopressin-like hormone or antidiuretic hormone regulating water and salt metabolism.	3-Isoleucyl Vasopressin,Arginine Oxytocin,Arginine Vasotocin,Argiprestocin,Vasopressin, Isoleucyl,Vasopressin, Non-Mammalian,(8-Arginine)Oxytocin,Argiprestocine,3 Isoleucyl Vasopressin,Isoleucyl Vasopressin,Non-Mammalian Vasopressin,Oxytocin, Arginine,Vasopressin, 3-Isoleucyl,Vasopressin, Non Mammalian,Vasotocin, Arginine
