Secretin and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), but not glucagon, stimulate accumulation of cyclic AMP in dispersed guinea pig pancreatic acinar cells. Secretin stimulated cellular accumulation of cyclic AMP by interacting with a single class of high affinity receptors. On the other hand, the dose-response curve for VIP-stimulated cellular cyclic AMP was biphasic and reflected interaction of this peptide with two classes of receptors. Results obtained with synthetic fragments of VIP and secretin indicate that the receptor having a high affinity for VIP has a low affinity for secretin, interacts with, but does not distinguish among, secretin, secretin 5-27 and [6-tyrosine] secretin or among secretin 14-27, VIP 14-28, VIP 15-28, and increases cellular cyclic AMP when occupied by VIP, but not when occupied by secretin, [6-tyrosine] secretin, or secretin 1-14. The receptor having a low affinity for VIP has a high affinity for secretin, interacts with and distinguishes among secretin, secretin 5-27, and [6-tyrosine] secretin, interacts with secretin 14-27 but not with VIP 14-28 or VIP 15-28, and increases cellular cyclic AMP when occupied by VIP, secretin, [6-tyrosine] secretin, or secretin 1-14.

D010179	Pancreas	A nodular organ in the ABDOMEN that contains a mixture of ENDOCRINE GLANDS and EXOCRINE GLANDS. The small endocrine portion consists of the ISLETS OF LANGERHANS secreting a number of hormones into the blood stream. The large exocrine portion (EXOCRINE PANCREAS) is a compound acinar gland that secretes several digestive enzymes into the pancreatic ductal system that empties into the DUODENUM.

D000242	Cyclic AMP	An adenine nucleotide containing one phosphate group which is esterified to both the 3'- and 5'-positions of the sugar moiety. It is a second messenger and a key intracellular regulator, functioning as a mediator of activity for a number of hormones, including epinephrine, glucagon, and ACTH.
