  1. 01LabIn vitro (cells)Activity measurement

    In mouse peritoneal macrophages, VIP suppressed phagocytosis in a dose-dependent manner.

    Summary
    This assay revealed that VIP suppressed phagocytosis in a dose-dependent manner.
  2. 02LabIn vitro (cells)Activity measurement

    In mouse peritoneal macrophages, a known VIP antagonist suppressed phagocytosis less than VIP did.

    In plain wordsIn mouse immune cells in a lab dish, VIP reduced particle uptake more than a known VIP-blocking compound did.

    Summary
    A known VIP-antagonist (N-Ac-Tyr1,D-Phe2)-growth hormone-releasing factor (GRF) (1-29)-NH2 suppressed phagocytosis less than VIP.
  3. 03LabIn vitro (cells)Mechanism

    In mouse peritoneal macrophages, VIP suppressed phagocytosis more in Ca(2+)-free solution than in normal solution.

    Summary
    Phagocytosis was suppressed by VIP further in Ca(2+)-free solution than in the normal solution.
  4. 04LabIn vitro (cells)Mechanism

    In mouse peritoneal macrophages, the degree of phagocytosis suppression by VIP was the same with or without the phosphodiesterase inhibitor IBMX.

    In plain wordsIn mouse immune cells in a lab dish, VIP reduced particle uptake equally with or without the enzyme blocker IBMX.

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).
