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.

    Mean plasma VIP concentration was significantly lower in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats than in Wistar-Kyoto rats.

    Summary
    The mean plasma VIP concentrations of SHRSP (n = 61) and WKY (n = 58) were 0.80 +/- 0.25 fmol/ml and 1.01 +/- 0.32 fmol/ml, respectively. The value of SHRSP was significantly lower than that of WKY (p < 0.01).

    In order to study alterations of peripheral substance P (SP) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) in the immunoreactive nervous system in essential hypertension, plasma SP and VIP concentrations in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP) at 8, 12, 18, 28, 30, 35 and 48 weeks of age a…
