Abstract
Vasoactive inhibitory peptide (VIP) and secretin were compared in regard to the stimulation of pancreatic bicarbonate secretion and the augmentation of pancreatic response to caerulein or a peptone meal in chronic gastric and pancreatic fistula dogs. Dose-response analysis showed that maximal bicarbonate response to VIP was about 17% of that to secretin. Both caerulein and endogenous cholecystokinin, released by a peptone meal, clearly potentiated pancreatic bicarbonate response to VIP in a manner similar to secretin. The interactions of these two peptides showed that VIP is a potent inhibitor of secretin-induced pancreatic secretion. From the dose-response curves to secretin alone and secretin plus VIP, Michaelis-Menten analysis showed typical competitive inhibition, which indicates that VIP and secretin share a common receptor site.Entities:
