Source sentences
Of the tested peptides, i.e. chicken VIP (cVIP), guinea pig VIP (gpVIP) and human/rat/porcine (mammalian) VIP (mVIP), the strongest stimulator of cAMP synthesis was cVIP, and the weakest one - the gpVIP.
1 context sentence(design, population, supporting numbers)
Chicken, guinea pig and mammalian (human/porcine/rat) vasoactive intestinal peptides (VIP; 0.001-3 microM) were compared with respect to their ability to stimulate adenosine 3', 5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) formation in the cerebral cortical slices of rat and guinea pig.
