“…Another possible hypothesis is that the contribution to overall parasympathetic responses by different neurotransmitters is relative. Thus, it is known that the parasympathetic islet nerves harbour not only acetylcholine as the neurotransmitter but also several different neuropeptides [11,12]. In particular, the neuropeptides vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), pituitary adenylate cyclise activating polypeptide (PACAP), gastrin releasing polypeptide (GRP) and cocaine-amphetamine regulated transcript (CART) are all islet parasympathetic neuropeptides, the first three of which all have been shown to stimulate insulin secretion [11,12].…”

“…It is known that the islets are richly innervated and these nerves are important for the regulation of islet function [11,12]. The parasympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system is particularly powerful in stimulating insulin secretion [11].…”

“…Glucose, which is the major stimulus for insulin release, achieves this rise of [Ca 2+ ] i by increased metabolism resulting in closure of ATP/ADP-sensitive K + channels, membrane depolarization and influx of Ca 2+ through L-type channels [1]. The primary effects of neurotransmitters and hormones on -cells often involve formation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP 3 ), which mobilizes Ca 2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) [2][3][4]. Cyclic ADP ribose (cADPr) [5] and nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) [6,7] acting on separate receptors have also been suggested to mediate intracellular Ca 2+ mobilization in -cells.…”
