Description
VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide) – Research Peptide (Research Use Only)
VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide) is a biologically active neuropeptide that naturally occurs in the nervous and digestive systems. In scientific research, it is used to study vascular regulation, immune modulation, and neuroendocrine mechanisms. This peptide plays a significant role in the regulation of vascular tone, cellular signaling, and communication between the nervous and immune systems.
⚠️ VIP is intended strictly for laboratory and scientific research.
⚠️ It is not approved as a medicinal product and is not intended for human or veterinary use.
Mechanistic Profile
VIP acts through specific receptors (VPAC1 and VPAC2) located in blood vessels, nervous tissue, and immune cells. In experimental models, it has demonstrated:
• Vasodilatory effects and relaxation of vascular smooth muscle
• Modulation of immune responses
• Influence on neural and neuroendocrine pathways
• Regulatory effects on cellular signaling
Why Researchers Use VIP
VIP is widely utilized in both basic and applied research due to its broad biological activity:
• Study of blood flow regulation and vascular tone
• Analysis of neuroimmune interactions
• Research into inflammatory and immune mechanisms
• Investigation of neural signaling and hormonal pathways
Use in Research Models
Under laboratory conditions, VIP is used, for example, for:
• Study of vascular physiology
• Modeling of neuroimmune responses
• Investigation of neural regulation
• Research into cellular communication
These applications are intended exclusively for scientific purposes and fundamental biological research.
