VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide) — Neuropeptide for Neuroimmunology Research

VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide) is a 28-amino acid neuropeptide belonging to the glucagon/secretin superfamily that was first isolated from porcine intestinal tissue and has since been identified as a widely distributed signaling molecule in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. In research applications, VIP serves as a pharmacological tool for investigating the VPAC1 and VPAC2 receptor signaling pathways, both of which are class B G protein-coupled receptors that signal predominantly through Gs-mediated cAMP production in target cells.

VIP has been studied in an extraordinary diversity of cellular contexts, including neuronal survival and differentiation, immune cell modulation, smooth muscle physiology, exocrine secretion mechanisms, and circadian rhythm regulation in suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) neuronal cultures. In immunological research, VIP has been demonstrated to modulate macrophage activation, inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokine production (including TNF-alpha, IL-6, and IL-12), and promote regulatory T cell differentiation in vitro — findings that have established it as a key research tool in the field of neuroimmunology and neuropeptide-mediated immune regulation.
