Localization of the neuropeptides pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide, vasoactive intestinal peptide, and their receptors in the basal brain blood vessels and trigeminal ganglion of the mouse CNS; an immunohistochemical study

Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) are structurally related neuropeptides that are widely expressed in vertebrate tissues. The two neuropeptides are pleiotropic and have been associated with migraine pathology. Three PACAP and VIP recep...
