Description
All presented information is based on scientific publications which can be found at the end of product description below.
VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide) is a 28-amino-acid neuropeptide signaling through VPAC1 and VPAC2 receptors, mediating diverse physiological functions across the nervous, immune, and gastrointestinal systems.
Research Highlights
1. Immune Modulation — Inhibits pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-12) while promoting IL-10.
2. Neuroprotection — Promotes neuronal survival against oxidative stress, excitotoxicity, and amyloid-beta toxicity.
3. Pulmonary Function — Bronchodilator and pulmonary pressure regulator. Investigated for pulmonary arterial hypertension.
4. GI Regulation — Relaxes smooth muscle, stimulates secretion, modulates intestinal motility.
5. Circadian Rhythm — VIP-expressing SCN neurons essential for circadian rhythmicity.
6. Reproductive Biology — Influences steroidogenesis, uterine contractility, and erectile function.
