Vasopressin (arginine vasopressin, AVP; antidiuretic hormone, ADH) is a peptide hormone formed in the hypothalamus, then transported via axons to, and released from, the posterior pituitary into the blood. AVP has two principle sites of action: the kidney and blood vessels.
Cutaneous anthrax symptoms can include: 1  A group of small blisters or bumps that may itch. 2  Swelling can occur around the sore. 3  A painless skin sore (ulcer) with a black center that appears after the small blisters or bumps Most often the sore will be on the face, neck, arms, or hands.
Describe each of these locations. What are the reasons why these locations allow the infection to occur? There are four types of anthrax, depending on where the infectious spore has arrived on the patient The first, cutaneous anthrax, is the least serious of the three, and produces a skin lesion, which is rarely painful (CDC, 2013).
