| − | '''Gastrin releasing peptide''' (GRP) is released by the post-ganglionic fibres of the [[vagus nerve]] which innervate the G cells of the stomach and stimulate them to release [[gastrin]]. GRP is also involved in the biology of the [[circadian]] system, playing a role in the signalling of light to the master [[circadian]] oscillator in the [[suprachiasmatic nuclei]] of the [[hypothalamus]]. Furthermore GRP seems to mediate certain aspects of [[stress]]. |

| − | This is the reason for the observed fact that [[atropine]] does not block the vagal effect on gastrin release. |
