Product Description
Multi-System Immune and Neurovascular Research Peptide
VIP, or Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide, is a naturally occurring regulatory peptide studied for its involvement in immune signaling, nervous-system function, respiratory physiology, vascular tone, and gastrointestinal activity. Laboratory research examines its ability to coordinate communication between multiple organ systems through receptor-mediated signaling.
VIP is investigated for its influence on inflammatory cytokine pathways. Research models examine its association with decreased activity of pro-inflammatory signals such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha, or TNF-α, and interleukin-6, or IL-6, alongside increased signaling involving the anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-10, or IL-10.
In nervous-system research, VIP is studied for neuroprotective, anti-inflammatory, and cellular-communication functions. Experimental models examine its potential role in protecting neurons from cellular stress, regulating neuroinflammation, and supporting signaling pathways associated with memory, mood, and communication between nerve cells.
Respiratory studies evaluate VIP for its ability to promote airway smooth-muscle relaxation. This mechanism is relevant to research involving bronchial tone, airway resistance, pulmonary airflow, tissue oxygen delivery, and signaling pathways that influence respiratory function.
VIP is also a potent vascular-signaling peptide investigated for vasodilation and microcirculatory regulation. By relaxing vascular smooth muscle in experimental systems, VIP research examines changes in vessel diameter, regional circulation, tissue perfusion, and micro-blood flow.
Within gastrointestinal research, VIP is studied for its role in regulating intestinal motility, digestive-fluid secretion, smooth-muscle activity, and protection of the intestinal lining. These investigations provide a framework for examining communication between the nervous, immune, and digestive systems.
