Background
VPAC1 receptors are widely distributed in the central nervous system (CNS), peripheral nervous system, and various peripheral tissues. In the CNS, they are found in regions such as the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, and hypothalamus. Peripherally, VPAC1 receptors are present in organs like the gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, heart, and immune cells. VPAC1 receptors primarily bind vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), a neuropeptide involved in regulating smooth muscle relaxation, vasodilation, hormone secretion, immune responses, and neurotransmission. Activation of VPAC1 receptors leads to activation of adenylate cyclase and subsequent intracellular signaling pathways, including cyclic AMP (cAMP) signaling.
