Relaxations induced by PACAP 38, PACAP 27, VIP and [Ala^11,22,28]-VIP in pig urinary bladder neck

Agonist	n	pD₂	E_max (%)
PACAP 38	7	7.0±0.1	78.4±8.6
PACAP 27	9	7.2±0.1	69.9±4.7
VIP	12	7.0±0.2	80.1±7.4
[Ala^11,22,28]-VIP	6	6.9±0.1	36.3±9.3^a,b,c

Results are expressed as mean±s.e.m. of n experiments. Differences were analysed by one-way ANOVA followed by an a posteriori Bonferroni t-test in case of significance.

^a,b,c

Significantly (P<0.05) different compared to the PACAP 38, PACAP 27 and VIP values. E_max is the maximal relaxation, expressed as a percentage of the PhE-induced contraction, obtained for each drug. pD₂=−log EC₅₀, where EC₅₀ is the concentration of agonist producing 50% of the E_max.
