“…L2 cells maintained the shape of type II alveolar pneumonocytes and retained the phenotype and functions of type II cells, including differentiation, synthesis of various endogenous compounds, and expression of specific receptors [37]. In the present study, the RT-PCR experiment revealed the exclusive expression of VPAC2 receptors in L2 cells, and this is consistent with our previous study which showed a predominant expression of the VPAC2 receptor in rat lung [38]. Furthermore, the radioligand-binding assay, with 125 I-labelled VIP, demonstrated the existence of high-affinity and saturable 125 Ilabelled VIP-binding sites in L2 cells, as revealed by the K d (0.77 · 10 )9 M) and B max (725 · 10 )15 molAEmg )1 of protein) values.…”

“…VIP is a 28-amino-acid peptide, a member of the secretin/glucagon superfamily, which acts on G proteincoupled receptors [96]. Despite its proposed role in protein extravasation, current studies have questioned its role in migraine pathogenesis.…”

“…All chemicals and solvents, unless otherwise specified, were of analytical grade and were used without purification. VIP and [R 8,15,21 , L 17 ]-VIP (in purities of >91%) were supplied by GL Biochemical Corp. (Shanghai, China). High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was carried out on a system consisting of a P680 pump, a PDA-100 photodiode array detector and a NaI(Tl) scintillation detector, with the column being LiChrosorb C18 (10 lm, 300 · 3.9 mm).…”

“…In this study, [R 8,15,21 , L 17 ]-VIP (Scheme 1B) was designed with the replacement of Asp8, Lys15, Lys21 by Arg and Met17 by Leu in amino acids sequence of VIP, as it is suitable for 18 F-labeling and has good proteolytic stability and high receptor-binding activity. For further investigation, [ 18 F]FB-[R 8,15,21 , L 17 ]-VIP was synthesized by conjugating [ 18 F]SFB with e-amino group of Lys20 ( Figure 1). Our aim was to determine whether the resulting [ 18 F]FB-[R 8,15,21 , L 17 ]-VIP would have the required pharmacokinetic properties to permit the binding and imaging of VIP receptors in vivo.…”
