ADH (Antidiuretic Hormone) The brain and kidneys regulate the amount of water excreted by the body. When the blood volume is low, the concentration of solutes in the blood is high. When the hypothalamus senses this low blood volume and increased serum osmolality it synthesizes ADH, a small peptide molecule.
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH). Posterior pituitary: Inhibits urine production by causing the kidneys to reabsorb more water, decreasing the volume of urine while increasing the volume of blood; therefore it can also increase blood pressure and can allow constriction of arterioles.
