The regulation of blood pressure mediated by biochemical signaling: hormonal, autocrine or paracrine. The regulated release of the hormone vasopressin into the blood stream by the hypothalamus and pituitary gland during fast regulation of blood pressure. The process that involves the secretion of or response to endocrine hormones. An endocrine hormone is a hormone released into the circulatory system. The decrease in blood vessel diameter as a result of the release of vasopressin into the blood stream. The process by which hormones modulate the force with which blood passes through the circulatory system. A hormone is one of a group of substances formed in very small amounts in one specialized organ or group of cells and carried (sometimes in the bloodstream) to another organ or group of cells, in the same organism, upon which they have a specific regulatory action. The regulation of blood pressure mediated by the signaling molecule vasopressin. Vasopressin is produced in the hypothalamus, and affects vasoconstriction, and renal water transport.
