Non-specific activation of human eosinophil functional responses by vasoactive intestinal peptide
Allergology International, 2000 Eosinophils and neuropeptides are thought to play effector roles in allergic diseases, such as rhinitis; however, little is known about the biological effects of neuromediators, especially vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), on eosinophil functional ...

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Abstract Vascular toxicity is a growing concern in cancer patients receiving vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitor (VEGFi) therapy, posing a significant threat to patient prognosis. While the primary mechanism of VEGFi‐induced vascular toxicity is linked to redox‐sensitive reactions that disrupt vascular tone, leading to hypertension and ...

The glucagon-like Peptide-2 [PDF]
, 2011 Multiple peptide hormones produced within the gastrointestinal system act also in the central nervous system and aid in the regulation of energy homeostasis and metabolism. The list of these peptides is progressively increasing and includes glucagon-like

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.There are some headache disorders known as trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias (TACs). When these “headaches” are localized in the mid‐face region, they are known as “trigeminal autonomic orofacial pains” (TAOPs), and they can mimic other types of face pains including dental pain, which puts the patient at risk of receiving treatments that are incorrect.

The Expression of Neuropeptides in Pulpitis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Neuropeptides play key roles in the inflammatory, nociceptive and reparative processes of the dental pulp. Their upregulation has been frequently observed in inflamed pulps, suggesting potential diagnostic value supporting a role for neurogenic inflammation in symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.

Elcatonin Raises Levels of Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide in Human Plasma
, 1996 Elcatonin, used for treatment of hypercalcaemia, Paget's disease and osteoporosis, causes flushing of the face and hands. To determine whether this was because of increased levels of vasoactive intestinal peptide, which is known to induce vasodilation ...
