Overview
Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide is a 28-amino-acid neuropeptide of the glucagon–secretin superfamily, first isolated from porcine intestine in 1970 and highly conserved across mammals. Its synthetic form is known as aviptadil.
It is a versatile reference standard in cellular study, examined for signaling across neuroendocrine, vascular, and pulmonary models. It is an extremely labile peptide with a very short plasma half-life.
