Results from this study2

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Natural levels measured2

These results measure the body's own peptide. Nobody was given the peptide. They are not evidence about taking it. They are left out of key results, evidence counts and charts.

    In a human tumour that produced VIP, most of the RNA that encodes the peptide was the intron-containing precursor type.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests of a human tumour that made VIP, most of the RNA for the body's own VIP was an unprocessed precursor form.

    Summary
    By RNA blot analysis using a variety of genomic and cDNA-related probes we show that in a human tumor producing vasoactive intestinal peptide, most of the RNA encoding the peptide is of the precursor type.

    This result measures the body's own Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP, aviptadil). Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.

    Summary
    Similar precursor transcripts were found in total rat brain RNA as well.

    This result measures the body's own Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP, aviptadil). Nobody was given the peptide. It is not evidence about taking it.
