Immunomodulatory vasoactive intestinal peptide amphiphile micelles.

Biomaterials Science, 2018
Two different vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) amphiphiles have been formulated which readily form micelles of varying shapes. Interestingly, VIP micelle structure has been found to directly correlate to anti-inflammatory behavior providing evidence that these biomaterials can serve as a promising new therapeutic modality.

Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2006
Abstract:  Tolerogenic dendritic cells (tDCs) play an important role in maintaining peripheral tolerance through the induction/activation of regulatory T cells (Treg). Endogenous factors contribute to the functional development of tDCs. In this article, we present evidence that two known immunosuppressive neuropeptides, the vasoactive intestinal ...

The effect of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide-38 and vasoactive intestinal peptide in cluster headache

Cephalalgia, 2020
Background Previously reported increases in serum levels of vasodilating neuropeptides pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide-38 (PACAP38) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) during attacks of cluster headache could indicate their involvement

Liposomal Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide

2005
Liposomes have been investigated as drug carriers since first discovered in the 1960s. However, the first-generation, so-called classic liposomes found relatively limited therapeutic utility. Nonetheless, the advent in the 1980s of the second-generation sterically stabilized liposomes (SSL) that evade uptake by the host's reticuloendothelial system ...

Vasoactive intestinal peptide

Journal of Endocrinological Investigation, 1986
Publisher Summary The vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) was so named because of its isolation from the intestinal extracts and the potent vasodilator activity that guided its purification. The highest concentrations of VIP in the central nervous system are found in the cerebral cortex, suprachiasmatic nucleus, anterior olfactory nuclei, bed nucleus ...

Vasoactive intestinal peptide producing neuroblastoma

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1982
The Verner-Morrison syndrome has been described in 19 previous patients with ganglioneuroma and ganglioneuroblastoma but never neuroblastoma. Its occurrence following treatment of a neuroblastoma with chemotherapy with maturation of the tumor has only been reported on one previous occasion.

Radioimmunoassay of vasoactive intestinal peptide

Journal of Surgical Research, 1976
Abstract A sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay for vasoactive intestinal peptide is described. Normal levels appear to be under 100 pg/ml with an upper range of normal of approximately 200 pg/ml. Values are elevated in liver disease, and slightly following portacaval shunt.
