Description
VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide) is a 28 amino acid neuropeptide that functions as a potent endogenous ligand for VPAC1 and VPAC2 receptors. It activates cAMP-dependent signaling cascades regulating smooth muscle relaxation, vasodilation, and immune modulation in preclinical studies. VIP is widely used in research examining neuroendocrine signaling, inflammatory regulation, and peptide-mediated vascular homeostasis.
