It fulfills the role of both a neurotransmitter and a neuromodulator in the nervous system and a hormone in the periphery. NTS is a neuromodulator of dopamine transmission and of anterior pituitary hormone secretion. It is also a paracrine and endocrine modulator in the periphery of the digestive tract and cardiovascular system. Finally, NTS serves as a growth factor for many normal and cancerous cell types.(Vincent) | ||
