VIP
Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide (VIP) is a gut hormone initially identified as a vasodilator. It is known to have numerous effects on development, growth, and the function of neuronal, epithelial, and endocrine cells. These effects influence ion secretion, nutrient absorption, gut motility, glycemic control, carcinogenesis, immune responses, and circadian rhythms.
VIP is composed of 28 amino acid residues and is found throughout the alimentary canal, lung, placenta and adrenal glands. VIP plays a critical role in maintaining gut immunological tolerance by regulating T cell and Toll-like receptor (TLR)-mediated immune responses. Its anti-inflammatory actions aid in the treatment of various inflammatory and autoimmune diseases like sepsis, multiple sclerosis, Crohn’s disease, and type 1 diabetes.
