Abstract
The hypothalamus and posterior pituitary form a complex neurohumoral system playing a key role in maintaining body fluid homeostasis and reproductive function. We review the pathophysiology mechanisms of posterior pituitary hormones and their implications, beyond water balance and delivery, in social functioning, pair bonding and affiliative behavior. Actual and future treatments for neurohypophysis related disorders are also discussed, particularly focusing on the development of new therapeutic compounds and patents.
