Interaction of substance P with dispersed pancreatic acinar cells from the guinea pig. Relationships between structure, binding and biological activity. 1984

L Sjödin, and E Brodin, and G Srivastava

Binding of 125I-[Tyr8]-SP to isolated pancreatic acinar cells was inhibited in a concentration-dependent way by SP, [Tyr8]-SP and longer C-terminal fragments of SP. SP6-11 was the shortest sequence to bind significantly to SP-receptors as well as to stimulate amylase release from dispersed pancreatic acini. SP7-11 and shorter fragments did not inhibit binding of 125I-[Tyr8]-SP and did not stimulate secretion of amylase significantly. SP augmented the stimulatory effect of cholecystokinin on amylase release. Two SP-antagonists, [D-Pro2, D-Trp7,9]-SP and [D-Pro2,4, D-Lys3, D-Gln5,6, D-Trp7,9]-SP inhibited binding of 125I-[Tyr8]-SP in a concentration dependent manner and tended at a high concentration to reduce release of amylase evoked by submaximal concentrations of SP.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008297	Male		Males
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.
D010446	Peptide Fragments	Partial proteins formed by partial hydrolysis of complete proteins or generated through PROTEIN ENGINEERING techniques.	Peptide Fragment,Fragment, Peptide,Fragments, Peptide
D011956	Receptors, Cell Surface	Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.

D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013373	Substance P	An eleven-amino acid neurotransmitter that appears in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. It is involved in transmission of PAIN, causes rapid contractions of the gastrointestinal smooth muscle, and modulates inflammatory and immune responses.

D018040	Receptors, Neurokinin-1	A class of cell surface receptors for TACHYKININS with a preference for SUBSTANCE P. Neurokinin-1 (NK-1) receptors have been cloned and are members of the G protein coupled receptor superfamily. They are found on many cell types including central and peripheral neurons, smooth muscle cells, acinar cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and immune cells.
