1 | The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanisms of the peptide YY effect on vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP)-stimulated jejunal net water flux in the rat. | Water | vasoactive intestinal peptide | Rattus norvegicus |
2 | A small peptide YY dose (10 pmol/kg) inhibited significantly (P < 0.005) the jejunal net water flux produced by 30 microg/kg per h of VIP. | Water | vasoactive intestinal peptide | Rattus norvegicus |
3 | These results suggest that peptide YY inhibits VIP-stimulated jejunal net water flux in vivo through a neural mechanism implicating the participation of nicotinic synapses, alpha2-adrenoceptors and sigma receptors. | Water | vasoactive intestinal peptide | Rattus norvegicus |
