Neurophysin II is a carrier protein and is cleaved from a precursor also consisting of vasopressin and copeptin. Neurophysin II specifically binds vasopressin. Vasopressin has a direct antidiuretic action on the kidney, and it also causes vasoconstriction of the peripheral vessels. Neurophysin II is also known as a stimulator of prolactin secretion, and can be associated with neurohypophyseal diabetes insipidus.
