Characterization of vasoactive intestinal peptide receptors on human megakaryocytes and platelets [PDF]

Blood, 1996
Vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor I (VIPRI) expression was examined in megakaryocytes using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). VIPRI protein was characterized in platelet membranes using covalent crosslinking techniques.

Resistance exercise breaks during prolonged sitting augment the blood flow response to a subsequent oral glucose load in sedentary adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sitting‐induced impairments in postprandial blood flow are an important link between sedentary behaviour and cardiometabolic disease risk. The objective of this work was to examine the effects of resistance exercise breaks (REB) performed every 30 min during an otherwise sedentary 3‐h period on the vasodilatory response to a subsequent oral ...

The therapeutic role of exercise training during menopause for reducing vascular disease

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Menopause marks a major milestone in female reproductive ageing. It is characterized by the cessation of ovarian function and a concomitant decline in hormones such as oestradiol. Subsequently, females undergoing menopausal transition experience a progressive increase in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease risk.

VPAC Receptor Subtypes Tune Purinergic Neuron-to-Glia Communication in the Murine Submucosal Plexus

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
The enteric nervous system (ENS) situated within the gastrointestinal tract comprises an intricate network of neurons and glia which together regulate intestinal function. The exact neuro-glial circuitry and the signaling molecules involved are yet to be

Amacrine cell inputs to OFF midget ganglion cells in macaque retina

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The goal of this study was to explain the findings from physiological studies that OFF midget ganglion cells had larger receptive field centers than expected from their dendritic field diameters. First, we confirmed that OFF mRGCs (OFF MGC) receive input from diffuse bipolar cells (DB) as well as OFF midget bipolar cells (FMB ...

Acetylcholine release in mouse hippocampal CA1 preferentially activates inhibitory-selective interneurons via alpha4 beta2* nicotinic receptor activation

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Acetylcholine (ACh) release onto nicotinic receptors directly activates subsets of inhibitory interneurons in hippocampal CA1. However, the specific interneurons activated and their effect on the hippocampal network is not completely understood ...

Vasoactive intestinal peptide receptor-based imaging and treatment of tumors

International Journal of Oncology, 2014
Vasoactive intestinal peptide receptors (VIPRs) are members of the G-protein-coupled receptor superfamily. These receptors are overexpressed in many common malignant tumors and play a major role in the progression and angiogenesis of a number of malignancies.

Pellagra From Tryptophan Depletion in Carcinoid Syndrome due to a Pulmonary Atypical Carcinoid Neuroendocrine Tumor

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Pellagra may complicate functioning pulmonary atypical carcinoid and present as a subtle acral dermatosis rather than the classical photo‐distributed rash. In neuroendocrine tumor patients with chronic diarrhea and new skin changes, clinicians should suspect niacin deficiency and consider empiric nicotinamide, even when niacin assays are ...
