In rat pituitary and pineal cells, the GHRH antagonists JV-1-36, JV-1-38 and JV-1-42 did not change VIP-stimulated prolactin release or cAMP efflux but inhibited GHRH-stimulated GH release.
In plain wordsIn rat cells in the lab, three GHRH-blocking analogs did not change the effect of VIP but blocked GHRH.

Previously reported GHRH antagonists JV-1-36, JV-1-38, and JV-1-42 proved to be selective for GHRH receptors, because they did not influence VIP-stimulated VPAC(2) receptor-dependent prolactin release from pituitary cells or VPAC(1) receptor-dependent cAMP efflux from pinealocytes but strongly inhib…

To characterize various peptide analogs for their antagonistic activity on receptors for GHRH and VIP, we developed assay systems based on superfusion of rat pituitary and pineal cells.
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. This result is not evidence about taking Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP, aviptadil).
