VIP 1 receptors are present In breast cancer cells. VIP elevates the cAMP and stimulates nuclear oncogene expression In MCF-7 cells. VIPhybrid is a VIP receptor antagonist that Inhibits breast cancer proliferation. A VIP analog has been developed for imagIng breast tumors. Therefore VIP 1 receptors may be utilized for the early detection and treatment of breast cancer.
