  1. 01LabEx vivo tissueMechanism

    In cat trachea, VIP suppressed the amplitude of excitatory junction potentials to 0.74 times the control value.

    In plain wordsIn cat windpipe tissue, VIP reduced the size of nerve-driven muscle signals to about three quarters of the control.

    Summary
    In the cat trachea, VIP (10-11 M) suppressed the ej.p. amplitude to 0.74 +/- 0.09 times the control value (n = 6).

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP, aviptadil) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP, aviptadil).

  1. 02LabNot a test of Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP, aviptadil) aloneEx vivo tissueMechanism

    In cat trachea pretreated with VIP antagonists, VIP no longer suppressed the excitatory junction potential amplitude.

    In plain wordsIn cat windpipe tissue, VIP-blocking compounds stopped VIP from reducing nerve-driven muscle signals.

    Summary
    However, after pretreatment of the tissue with the VIP antagonists [Ac-Tyr', D-Phe2]-GRF(1-29)- H2 (10-8M) and [4-Cl-D-Phe6, Leu17]-VIP (10-8M), VIP (10-11 M) did not suppress the ej.p. amplitude

    In this study, Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP, aviptadil) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP, aviptadil).
