Abstract: Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) receptor (VPAC1, VPAC2) abundances in the myometrium and functions in the regulation of inflamed uterine contractility in pigs were studied. In the CON group with gilts, only laparotomy was performed. The… read more here.

Abstract: Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) is an important modulator of hippocampal synaptic transmission that influences both GABAergic synaptic transmission and glutamatergic cell excitability through activation of VPAC1 and VPAC2 receptors. Presynaptic enhancement of GABA release contributes… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms232213797
Abstract: Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide (PACAP) is a neuropeptide expressed in the trigeminal ganglia (TG). The TG conducts nociceptive signals in the head and may play roles in migraine. PACAP infusion provokes headaches in healthy individuals… read more here.
