Abstract excerpt
We investigated the role of tachykinin receptor subtypes on secretory responses in the guinea-pig distal colon using Ussing chamber experiments and intracellular recordings from submucosal neurones. Choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) were demonstrated in...
