Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase-Activating Polypeptide and Its Receptors: From Structure to Functions
TL;DR: The current knowledge concerning the multiple actions of PACAP in the central nervous system and in various peripheral organs including the endocrine glands, the airways, and the cardiovascular and immune systems are reviewed, as well as the different effects ofPACAP on a number of tumor cell types.

TL;DR: The present report reviews the current knowledge concerning the pleiotropic actions of PACAP and discusses its possible use for future therapeutic applications.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuropeptide Y and neuropeptide Y receptor subtypes in brain and peripheral tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pulmonary clearance of circulating endothelin-1 in dogs in vivo: exclusive role of ETBreceptors
TL;DR: Pulmonary clearance of circulating endothelin-1 in dogs in vivo: exclusive role of ETB receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Presynaptic inhibition by neuropeptide Y in rat hippocampal slice in vitro is mediated by a Y2 receptor.
TL;DR: The presynaptic NPY receptor in hippocampal CA1 therefore shares an identical agonist profile with the Presynaptic Y2 receptor at the peripheral sympathetic neuroeffector junction.
