In the teleost fish, Gillichthys mirabilis, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP)-like immunoreactivity is present in some nerve fibres of the principal pancreatic islet and surrounding tissues, the vagus and splanchnic nerves, the coeliac ganglion and the wall of the intestine. The nerves of the pancreatic islet that contain VIP-like immunoreactivity probably correspond to one of the two types of non-cholinergic, non-adrenergic (peptidergic) nerve previously described in this fish. Similarities in the localisation of hormonal peptides in fish and mammals suggest that the regulation of gastroenteropancreatic physiology in fish may resemble that of mammals.
在硬骨鱼吉利氏鳉中，血管活性肠肽（VIP）样免疫反应性存在于主胰岛和周围组织的一些神经纤维、迷走神经和内脏神经、腹腔神经节以及肠壁中。胰岛中含有VIP样免疫反应性的神经可能对应于此前在这种鱼中描述的两种非胆碱能、非肾上腺素能（肽能）神经类型之一。鱼类和哺乳动物中激素肽定位的相似性表明，鱼类胃肠胰腺生理学的调节可能与哺乳动物相似。
