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.
Anthrax is not spread from one person to another (it is not contagious). Symptoms of cutaneous anthrax appear almost immediately, within one day after infection. The symptoms of anthrax appear 2-6 days after infection but may not be visible until 6 weeks or more. Symptoms of intestinal anthrax appear between 1-7 days after infection.
