The ability of VIP, PHI, secretin, helodermin, and seven N-terminally D-amino monosubstituted VIP and PHI analogs to occupy (125I)iodo-VIP labeled receptors and to activate adenylate cyclase was tested on human lung membranes purified by the method of Schachter et al. Best fitted Kd, Kact and % of max. values suggested the coexistence, in near equal proportions, of two classes of VIP-preferring binding sites coupled to adenylate cyclase that showed similar decreasing affinity for: VIP greater than (D-Ala4)-VIP greater than (D-Asp3)-VIP = (D-Ser2)-VIP greater than (D-His1)-VIP greater than PHI greater than (D-Phe2)-VIP greater than (D-Phe4)-VIP. (D-Arg2)-VIP was a non-selective agonist. A third receptor type, coupled to adenylate cyclase and showing high affinity for secretin and helodermin but not for VIP, was also detected.

D011964 Receptors, Gastrointestinal Hormone Cell surface proteins that bind gastrointestinal hormones with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. Most gastrointestinal hormones also act as neurotransmitters so these receptors are also present in the central and peripheral nervous systems.
