Abstract excerpt
The pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) receptor, PAC1, recognizes PACAP with a higher affinity than it recognizes vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and belongs to the subfamily G protein-coupled receptors. So far, more than 10 different splice variants of PAC1 have been cloned from rat tissue. Interestingly, the various PAC1 splice variants exhibit different signaling pathways. These...
