Abstract
It is known that the human exocrine pancreas responds to secretin stimulation more than does VIP, a structurally related peptide. We looked for the receptors for those polypeptides in a human pancreatic cancer cell line grown in culture and in nude mice. By analysing the cAMP responses and the 125I-VIP binding we found VIP receptors with a KD of 1.5 10(-9) M. Secretin stimulates the adenylate cyclase through the VIP receptor sites with a KD of 1.7. 10(-6) M. We noted also that during cell proliferation in culture there was about a 5 fold increase of the cAMP response to VIP.Entities:
