About VIP

VIP is studied in the context of neuroscience and cognitive research. Binds the G-protein-coupled receptors VPAC1 and VPAC2, activating cAMP-dependent signaling; produces vasodilation, modulates the circadian pacemaker function of the suprachiasmatic nucleus, and exerts broad immunomodulatory effects.

Research Application

A central research subject in neuroimmunology and chronobiology, and — as aviptadil — in clinical trials for acute respiratory failure in COVID-19.

Important to know

Sequence / Structure 28 amino acids, C-terminally amidated. A member of the secretin/glucagon peptide superfamily; identical in sequence across human, cow, pig, goat, and dog.

Regulatory Status An endogenous, well-characterized neuropeptide, not itself an approved drug; the synthetic analog aviptadil was tested in phase 2b/3 clinical trials for COVID-19 respiratory failure but remains not FDA-approved.

Sequence and regulatory status data are based on publicly available sources and refer to the compound in general, not to a specific product.
