Anti Diuretic hormone is produced in a region of the brain know as the hypothalamus. Like all hormones in flow through the blood stream and it's target is the kidney.
It controls and alters the quantity of water in blood. So ADH has the ability to make the blood more or less concentrated.
ADH targets the collecting duct. It allows more water to come out of the collecting duct. It makes the collecting duct more porous. the consequence is that the urine becomes more concentrated.
