$76.00

Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide (VIP) is a 28-amino acid neuropeptide belonging to the secretin/glucagon superfamily, found throughout the body in the central and peripheral nervous systems, gastrointestinal tract, and immune system. VIP is involved in critical physiological processes, including vasodilation, smooth muscle relaxation, neurotransmission, and immune modulation. Its effects are primarily mediated through its binding to two G protein-coupled receptors, VPAC1 and VPAC2, making it an important target for research in cardiovascular, neurological, and immune-related therapies.
