Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Alexa Fluor® 647 Anti-VIP antibody [EPR23288-43] (AB275202)

Immunofluorescence staining of VIP staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human normal duodenum*.

Performed on a Leica BOND. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with EDTA (pH9.0) using retrieval settings of 110°C for 20 minutes. The section was then incubated at room temperature for 1 hour with ab275202 at 1/50 dilution (shown in red) and counterstained using ab195887, Mouse monoclonal to alpha Tubulin (Alexa Fluor® 488), at 1/250 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Dako Fluorescence Mounting Medium®.

Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated), customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentrations and incubation times.

Supplementary information

Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide (VIP) also known as VIP or Alexa VIP is a 28-amino acid neuropeptide with a molecular mass of approximately 3326 Da. VIP is broadly expressed in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. It plays a mechanical role as a neurotransmitter and neuromodulator impacting various physiological functions such as vasodilation regulation of prolactin secretion and modulation of intestinal motility. By engaging in these processes VIP affects multiple bodily systems and acts at many sites within the human body.
Biological function summary

This protein influences immune response smooth muscle activity and circadian rhythm. VIP operates independently and as part of a complex in the body interacting with specific receptor types on the cellular surface like VPAC1 and VPAC2 receptors which are part of the G-protein coupled receptors family. VIP’s role as a regulator of immune response includes modulation of cytokine production and influencing lymphocyte activity implicating it as a significant player in homeostasis.

Pathways

A well-known function of VIP involves its participation in the cAMP signaling pathway which contributes to various cellular responses like neurotransmitter release and neuropeptide-mediated pathways influencing endocrine systems. VIP's activity in these pathways connects it to other proteins such as adenylate cyclase which it influences to increase cAMP levels further affecting processes such as synaptic transmission and the regulation of circadian rhythms. Through these pathways VIP affects physiological processes across the nervous and endocrine systems coordinating different aspects of bodily function.

VIP has notable associations with conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and asthma. The modulation of inflammatory processes by VIP impacts these diseases by influencing immune responses which can either exacerbate or alleviate symptoms. In IBD VIP interacts with elements of the immune system reducing inflammation and helping maintain mucosal integrity. In asthma VIP can alter airway inflammation and smooth muscle contraction through its pathways connected to the immune system and smooth muscle tissues interacting with proteins like cytokines that play roles in these conditions.

Target data

Vasoactive intestinal peptide. VIP is a neuropeptide involved in a diverse array of physiological processes through activating the PACAP subfamily of class B1 G protein-coupled receptors : VIP receptor 1 (VPR1) and VIP receptor 2 (VPR2) (PubMed : 1318039, PubMed : 36385145, PubMed : 8933357). Abundantly expressed throughout the CNS and peripheral nervous systems where they primarily exert neuroprotective and immune modulatory roles (PubMed : 3456568). Also causes vasodilation, lowers arterial blood pressure, stimulates myocardial contractility, increases glycogenolysis and relaxes the smooth muscle of trachea, stomach and gall bladder (PubMed : 15013843).. Intestinal peptide PHM-27. Bioactive forms that cause vasodilation (PubMed : 15013843, PubMed : 3654650). PHM-27 is a potent agonist of the calcitonin receptor CALCR, with similar efficacy as calcitonin (PubMed : 15013843).. Intestinal peptide PHV-42. Bioactive forms that cause vasodilation (PubMed : 15013843, PubMed : 3654650).
