VIP

Buy VIP Peptide America

Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) is a neuropeptide, consisting of 28-amino acids, that belongs to the glucagon/growth hormone-releasing hormone/secretin superfamily. The peptide exerts its pleiotropic effects through three G-protein-coupled receptors: VPAC1, VPAC2, and PAC1.

America Research suggests that the primary physiological roles of VIP include vasodilation, bronchodilation, stimulation of gastrointestinal motility, and regulation of circadian rhythms. Moreover, VIP has been recognized for its potent anti-inflammatory properties. In experimental models of inflammatory disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and sepsis, VIP demonstrated significant reduction in pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines.

Potential Benefits of VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide)

  • Promotes Cell Proliferation: According to research, Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide (VIP) is known for its role in promoting cell proliferation. Research suggests it stimulates the growth of various types of cells by binding to its specific receptors on cell surfaces, triggering a signaling cascade that leads to cell proliferation [1].
  • Anti-inflammatory Properties: VIP has been reported in research to exhibit potent anti-inflammatory effects. It inhibits the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and promotes the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines, thereby reducing inflammation in the body [2].
  • Neuroprotective Effects: According to research, VIP has neuroprotective effects, helping to protect neurons from damage. Studies indicate it promotes neuronal survival and reduces neuronal death in conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease [3].
  • Regulation of Circadian Rhythm: VIP plays a key role in maintaining the body’s circadian rhythm. Scientific studies indicate it helps to synchronize the internal body clock with environmental light-dark cycles, thus regulating sleep-wake cycles [4].
  • Role in Respiratory System: Studies suggest VIP is involved in the regulation of bronchial smooth muscle tone and mucus secretion, contributing to normal respiratory function [5].
  • Gastrointestinal Function: Research indicates VIP regulates several aspects of gastrointestinal physiology, including gut motility and secretion of digestive enzymes [6].
