Our previous study in conscious dogs revealed that PACAP stimulated exocrine pancreatic secretion in a manner different from VIP. The objectives of this study were to characterize the effects of PACAP on amylase secretion and intracellular cAMP production in guinea pig pancreatic acini and to compare them with those of VIP and secretin. PACAP38 and PACAP27 (10(-10)-10(-8)M) stimulated amylase secretion from pancreatic acini in a concentration-related manner. The order of potency for amylase secretion was PACAP27 = VIP > PACAP38. The maximally stimulated amylase secretion by PACAP27 was not enhanced by VIP or secretin, but was synergistically increased by cholecystokinin and A23187. PACAP38 and PACAP27 (10(-2)-10(-7)M) increased intracellular cAMP levels in a concentration-related manner. The potency for cAMP production was PACAP38 = PACAP27 = VIP.

The peptide was assembled stepwise on a polyethyleneglycol-polystyrene support using Fmoc-chemistry. The phosphorylation was performed on-resin by phosphitylation with a large excess of di-tert-butyl-N,N-diethylphosphoramidite within 1 hour, followed by oxidation with tert-butylhydroperoxide to the protected phosphopeptide. After cleavage and deprotection the disulfide bridge was introduced without side reactions by iodine titration of the mono-acetamidomethyl protected crude peptide. During the synthetic pathway, the acylation with side chain-unprotected Fmoc-serine and the phosphitylation satisfactorily yielded the expected intermediates. In some phosphorylation experiments a by-product having a reduced mass corresponding to the H-phosphonate was observed. Illustrated with the synthesis of phosphourodilatin, this type of by-product, which could not be separated by HPLC, and the difficult amino acid sequence make the synthesis of a large phosphopeptide a more delicate task than the synthesis of short phosphopeptides, which do not contain oxidation-sensitive amino acids, difficult sequences or additional structural elements such as disulfide loops.

This process is termed antigen presentation. Progress in a variety of laboratories over the last several years has yielded a wealth of information about the molecular mechanisms underlying antigen presentation, providing potential new approaches to vaccine design.

Consensus or individual sequences have been obtained for naturally processed peptides bound to a variety of class I and class II molecules, revealing the general features of peptides associated with MHC molecules. The interactions between peptides and MHC molecules have been more clearly defined by the characterization of the three dimensional structure of several different MHC molecules. CTLs have been implicated in immune responses against tumors and it is now well documented that some human tumors express specific antigens, which are recognised by CTLs and could potentially be used in immunotherapy protocols.
