Human Gene Set: BIOCARTA_VIP_PATHWAY

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see BIOCARTA_VIP_PATHWAY

Standard name BIOCARTA_VIP_PATHWAY
Systematic name M17941
Brief description Neuropeptides VIP and PACAP inhibit the apoptosis of activated T cells
Full description or abstract Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and the structurally related pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP), two neuropeptides present in the lymphoid microenvironment, elicit a broad spectrum of biological functions, including the modulation of innate and adaptive immunity. Another important immunoregulatory function of VIP and PACAP is their inhibition effect on AICD in T cells. They inhibit the TCR-stimulated FasL expression and apoptosis of T cell through specific receptors and induction of intracellular cAMP. VIP down-regulate c-Myc synthesis, the NF-AT-dependent Egr2 and Egr3 expression, the NF-AT and NF-kB.
