Aldosterone, vasopressin (AVP) and atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) plasmatic concentrations were determined in cord arterial blood from 42 newborns to term: 29 healthful and 13 with perinatal asphyxia. Control group showed plasmatic levels (pg/dl) AVP, aldosterone and ANF significantly lower than perinatal asphyxia newborns group (AVP: 2.27 +/- 1.43 vs 4.26 +/- 2.86; aldosterone: 1.113 +/- 384.79 vs 1,540.38 +/- 595.96; ANF: 2.27 +/- 1.43 vs 4.26 +/- 2.86, respectively (p less than 0.05). We found an inverse correlation between umbilical arterial pH vs AVP, aldosterone and AFN, and a direct correlation between ANF vs aldosterone. Perinatal asphyxia induces secretion of the three studied hormonal factors, likely as a physiologic mechanism of fetal adaptation to hydroelectrolytic and hemodynamic changes which occur during the asphyxia.

D001238 Asphyxia Neonatorum Respiratory failure in the newborn. (Dorland, 27th ed)
D014667 Vasopressins Antidiuretic hormones released by the NEUROHYPOPHYSIS of all vertebrates (structure varies with species) to regulate water balance and OSMOLARITY. In general, vasopressin is a nonapeptide consisting of a six-amino-acid ring with a cysteine 1 to cysteine 6 disulfide bridge or an octapeptide containing a CYSTINE. All mammals have arginine vasopressin except the pig with a lysine at position 8. Vasopressin, a vasoconstrictor, acts on the KIDNEY COLLECTING DUCTS to increase water reabsorption, increase blood volume and blood pressure.
