Glossary

Vasodilation

Widening of blood vessels

Vasodilation refers to the widening of small blood vessels, which increases blood flow to a tissue. Signals such as nitric oxide can trigger the smooth muscle around vessels to relax. Several research peptides are examined for possible effects on local blood flow through this or related pathways.

Used in 1 research peptide

VIP (Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide)
A 28-amino-acid signaling peptide with anti-inflammatory and vasodilatory actions; its synthetic form (aviptadil) has been trialed for respiratory failure, and an intranasal form is used off-label in the chronic-inflammatory-response (mold/CIRS) community.
