Dragon Pharma VIP 6 mg – Synthetic Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide for Research
β Synthetic 28-amino-acid neuropeptide β Potent vasodilator and neurotransmitter β Immune system regulator β USA domestic shipping available
Dragon Pharma VIP 6 mg is a synthetic form of Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide (VIP), a 28-amino-acid human neuropeptide hormone that functions as a potent vasodilator, neurotransmitter, and immune system regulator. Produced naturally in the gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, and brain, VIP plays critical roles in smooth muscle relaxation, fluid and electrolyte secretion, and the modulation of inflammatory responses.
Each vial contains 6 mg of lyophilized VIP in a 2 mL format, requiring reconstitution with bacteriostatic water before use. This peptide has been extensively studied for its diverse biological activities, including vasodilation, neuroprotection, immunomodulation, and regulation of digestive and respiratory functions.

What Makes VIP Valuable in Research?
VIP is a pleiotropic neuropeptide with a wide range of biological effects. Its ability to act as a potent vasodilator, relax smooth muscle, and modulate immune responses makes it a valuable research tool for investigating multiple physiological systems. VIP interacts with specific receptors (VPAC1 and VPAC2) that are widely distributed throughout the body, enabling its diverse functions.
Researchers value VIP for its versatility and its role in connecting nervous, endocrine, and immune systems. Its involvement in conditions ranging from inflammation and autoimmune disorders to gastrointestinal and respiratory function makes it relevant to numerous research areas. For investigators exploring immune-modulating peptides, Thymosin Alpha-1 offers complementary research avenues in immune system regulation.
Current scientific literature on VIP can be accessed through the PubMed database, where researchers can review peer-reviewed studies on its biological activity and experimental applications.
Key Research Applications for Dragon Pharma VIP
- β Investigation of vasodilation and vascular regulation
- β Evaluation of smooth muscle relaxation mechanisms
- β Research on immune system modulation and inflammation
