Results from this study2

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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone2

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).

    In guinea-pig pancreatic acini, cod VIP was virtually equipotent with porcine VIP in stimulating amylase release.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests on guinea-pig pancreatic cells, a cod VIP-like peptide worked about as strongly as pig VIP.

    Summary
    These substitutions seem to have little effect on bioactivity, since cod VIP was virtually equipotent with porcine VIP in stimulating amylase release from guinea-pig pancreatic acini.

    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).

    Summary
    This peptide contains four, or five substitutions, compared with dogfish and porcine VIP, respectively.

    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).
