Figure 4. Representative photo series of secreting isolated lacrimal gland duct segments in response to VIP stimulation. The luminal spaces of the native images (first and third rows) are marked with blue (second and fourth rows). A strong secretory response could be shown in wild-type (WT) ducts to vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) stimulation as the luminal spaces were notably swollen after treatment. No remarkable changes could be detected in cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) knockout (KO) ducts following VIP stimulation.
