Lacrimal gland involvement in graft-versus-host disease: a murine model.

abstract：:Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and d-ala2-methionine enkephalinamide (DALA, a long-lasting enkephalin analogue) were used to investigate the peptidergic control of lacrimal gland function. To characterize the mechanism by which VIP stimulates and DALA inhibits lacrimal peroxidase secretion, the effect of these pe...
