Abstract excerpt
Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP), a neuropeptide belonging to the VIP/secretin/glucagon family, is present in the hypothalamus, anterior pituitary, and adrenal gland where it regulates hormone release, in the GI tract where it modulates motility, and in human tumoral cel...
