  We have recently studied coupled channel interactions of vector and
pseudoscalar mesons with octet baryons having total strangeness null and
spin-parity $1/2^-$. We, thus, considered $\pi N$, $\eta N$, $K \Lambda$, $K
\Sigma$, $\rho N$, $\omega N$, $\phi N$, $K^* \Lambda$, and $K^*\Sigma$ with
total isospin 1/2 and 3/2. The interactions between pseudoscalar mesons and
baryons are obtained by using the Weinberg-Tomozawa theorem. For the case of
vector mesons, we calculate $s$-, $t$-, $u$-exchange diagrams and a contact
term. The subtraction constants, required to calculate the loop-function in the
scattering equations, are constrained by fitting the available experimental
data on some of the reactions with pseudoscalar meson-baryon final states. We
end up finding resonances which can be related to $N^*(1535)$, $N^*(1650)$
(with a double pole structure), $N^*(1895)$ and $\Delta(1620)$. We conclude
that these resonances can be, at least partly, interpreted as dynamically
generated resonances and that the vector mesons play an important role in
determining the dynamical origin of the low-lying $N^*$ and $\Delta$ states.
