1.	Chronic Kidney Failure (Chronic Renal Failure) 07/01/1991 - "Glomerulopressin in end-stage renal disease. " 07/01/1991 - "Plasma and hemofiltrate activities and hemodialysis (HD) clearance of glomerulopressin (GP) were measured in eight end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. " 04/01/1993 - "Effects of chronic renal failure and hemodialysis on plasma glomerulopressin."
2.	Anuria 05/01/1980 - "In animals with 30 min of anuria both mannitol and glomerulopressin increased GFR and urinary flow, but if the rats were anuric for 120 min, only glomerulopressin was effective in restoring GFR and urinary flow. "
3.	Fibrosis (Cirrhosis) 01/01/1991 - "Glomerulopressin activity in carbon tetrachloride-induced cirrhosis in male rats." 01/01/1991 - "The data support the concept that glomerulopressin deficiency in liver disease, such as cirrhosis, may play a role in the genesis of the functional renal failure associated with liver disease." 01/01/1991 - "The activity of glomerulopressin, a putative renal vasoregulatory hormone that is synthesized in the liver, was assayed in male rats with carbon tetrachloride-induced cirrhosis and the results were compared to glomerulopressin activity in normal-control and pair-fed animals. " 01/01/1987 - "The current literature regarding prostaglandins (PGs) is reviewed, with emphasis on how vasodilatory PGs appear first to help maintain homeostasis in advanced cirrhosis and how vasoconstrictor thromboxane may then be involved in the transition to HRS. Finally, new findings regarding the liver hormone glomerulopressin are examined, and how deficient release of this may lead to the decrease in glomerular filtration rate seen in HRS."

5.	Renal Insufficiency (Renal Failure) 01/01/1991 - "The data support the concept that glomerulopressin deficiency in liver disease, such as cirrhosis, may play a role in the genesis of the functional renal failure associated with liver disease."
