Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus is treated with thiazide diuretics. The usefulness of thiazide diuretics in treating nephrogenic diabetes insipidus is explained as follows:

a. Thiazide diuretics inhibit Na+ reabsorption in the early distal tubule. By preventing dilution of the urine at that site, the final, excreted urine is less dilute.

b. Thiazide diuretics decrease glomerular filtration rate; because less water is filtered, less water is excreted.

c. Thiazide diuretics, by increasing Na+ excretion, can cause a secondary ECF volume contraction.

Which one of the following combination of above statements is correct?

ADH has two actions, one on the kidney and the other on vascular smooth muscle, these actions are mediated by different receptors, different intracellular mechanisms, and different secondary messengers.

a. The major action of ADH is to increase the water permeability of principal cells in the late distal tubule and collecting duct.

b. The receptor for ADH on the principal cells is a V2 receptor, which is coupled to adenylyl cyclase via a Gs protein. 

c. The second messenger is cAMP, via phosphorylation steps, directs the insertion of water channels, aquaporin 2 (AQP2), in luminal membranes.

d. The receptor for ADH on the principal cells is a V1 receptor, which is coupled to phospholipase C via Gq protein.

Which one of the following combination of above statements is correct?
