  1. 01LabEx vivo tissueActivity measurement

    In canine intestinal mucosa preparations, the highest [125I]VIP binding was in the P2 fraction, matching the locations of [3H]saxitoxin binding and VIP-immunoreactive content.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests on dog intestine tissue, VIP bound most in the same fraction that held nerve-ending markers.

    Summary · context
    The present study examined the localization and characterization of [125I]vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) binding to synaptosomes and enterocyte membranes using preparations made from homogenized canine intestinal mucosa and compared it to [3H]saxitoxin binding and VIP-immunoreactive content…
  2. 02LabEx vivo tissueActivity measurement

    A synaptosome-enriched fraction of canine intestinal mucosa had a high density of saturable VIP receptors (352 +/- 26.40 fmol/mg) with high affinity (Kd 0.23 nM) for [125I]VIP.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests on dog intestine tissue, nerve-ending fractions held many VIP receptors that bound VIP tightly.
