    Summary · context
    In this study, we investigated the effects of PACAP on cAMP accumulation, phosphoinositide hydrolysis and Ca2+ influx in osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells, compared with those of vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), which shows a considerable homology with PACAP in the N-terminal sequence.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone2

In this study, Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP, aviptadil) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP, aviptadil).

    In MC3T3-E1 cells, cAMP accumulation stimulated by PACAP combined with VIP was additive.

    In plain wordsIn lab-grown bone-forming cells, PACAP and VIP together raised cAMP by the sum of their separate effects.
