| Core Tip |
The results of the present study demonstrate for the first time that, in strips from the mouse gastric fundus, glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) depresses the amplitude of the neurally-induced contractile responses and enhances the amplitude of the relaxant ones through the modulation of the nitrergic neurotransmission. GLP-2 also increases neuronal nitric oxide synthase immunoreactivity in the nerve structures. All these inhibitory effects might contribute to gastric relaxation, thus increasing the organ capacity. Since gastric distension represents a peripheral satiety signal from a physiological point of view, it could be speculated that the relaxant effects of GLP-2 might concur to suppress feeding behavior in rodents. |
