This study was designed to test the hypothesis that stimulation of adenylate cyclase and elevation of cAMP is involved in the signal transduction process for substance P, calcitonin gene-related peptide, vasoactive intestinal peptide, cholecystokinin or gastrin releasing peptide in myenteric ganglia. Enzymatically dissociated ganglia from the myenteric plexus of the guinea-pig small intestine were used to study changes in levels of cAMP in response to application of the brain-gut peptides in the presence and absence of forskolin. Application of substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide were found to increase intraganglionic cAMP in a dose-dependent fashion when a phosphodiesterase inhibitor was present. The ED50 values for substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide were 5 microM and 0.75 microM, respectively. The presence of forskolin in the incubation medium resulted in significant upward shifts of the dose-response curves for both peptides. Neither vasoactive intestinal peptide, cholecystokinin nor gastrin releasing peptide stimulated increases in intraganglionic cAMP under the same experimental conditions used for substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide.
