...Proteolysis of chromogranin A takes place both within secretory granules and extracellularly, giving rise to several smaller biologically active peptides such as pancreastatin (which inhibits insulin and parathyroid hormone release [21]), b-granin or vasostatin (which inhibits parathyroid hormone release and relaxes vascular smooth muscle [22–26]), and parastatin (which inhibits parathyroid hormone release [27])....
