Modulation of VIP-Stimulated cAMP Formation by Excitatory Amino Acids in Mouse Cerebral Cortex

We have investigated the modulatory action of excitatory amino acids (EAA) on vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP)-stimulated cAMP formation in mouse cerebral cortical slices. Glutamate and aspartate potentiate in a concentration-dependent manner the ef ...

Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide induces glycogenolysis in mouse cortical slices: a possible regulatory mechanism for the local control of energy metabolism

Pierre Magistretti

Mouse cerebral cortex slices will synthesize [3H]glycogen in vitro. Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) stimulates the enzymatic breakdown of this [3H]glycogen. The concentration giving 50% of maximum effectiveness (EC50) is 26 nM. Under the same exper ...
