Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), a 28 amino acid peptide originally isolated by its vasodilation activity, binds to two class B GPCRs, VPAC1 and VPAC2, to exert its functions in the CNS, vasculature, immune system and adrenal medulla. In the immune system, VPAC2 is expressed on stimulated CD4 T cells, and binding of T cell-derived VIP to VPAC2 induces a shift toward the Th2 pathway. In addition, VPAC2 is an essential regulator of the circadian pacemaker of the hypothalamic suprachiasmatic nuclei.
