Correlation of Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide and Nitric Oxide Synthase with Choline Acetyltransferase in the Airway Innervation

Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and nitric oxide (NO) are potent mediators of neural airway smooth muscle relaxation. The major contractile mediator released by airway nerves under physiological conditions is acetylcholine (ACh). In the present study, we have correlated the immunohistochemical d...
