    Summary
    Cerebral microvessels obtained from rats, guinea-pigs, cattle, and pigs all responded potently to bovine (b) PTH-(1-34), whereas considerable between-species variability was observed in the responsiveness to VIP.

    We have studied the responsiveness of vascular adenylate cyclase to vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) using preparations of cerebral microvessels and arteries.
  2. 02LabEx vivo tissueActivity measurement

    In a broken-cell preparation of bovine arteries, VIP activated adenylate cyclase with an ED50 of 6.9 nM, with efficacy equal to PHI and greater than bPTH-(1-34).

    In plain wordsIn lab tests on cow arteries, VIP switched on adenylate cyclase at a low dose, as strongly as PHI and more than bPTH-(1-34).

    Summary
    The ED50 values for activation of bovine arterial adenylate cyclase by VIP, PHI, and bPTH-(1-34) were 6.9 nM, 10 nM, and 100 nM, respectively, with the following order of efficacy: VIP = PHI greater than bPTH-(1-34).

  3. 03LabEx vivo tissueMechanism

    A PTH antagonist did not affect VIP activation of vascular adenylate cyclase in microvessels or arteries, although it inhibited activation by bPTH-(1-34).

    In plain wordsIn lab tests on brain vessels, a PTH blocker did not change how VIP switched on adenylate cyclase.

    Summary
    The PTH antagonist, [Nle8, Nle18, Tyr34]bPTH-(3-34) amide, inhibited bPTH-(1-34) activation of vascular adenylate cyclase but did not affect activation by VIP using either microvessels or arteries.

    The effects of VIP and PHI on vascular adenylate cyclase were nonadditive with each other.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests on brain vessels, VIP and PHI did not add to each other's effect, which suggests a shared receptor.
