| | Bradykinin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Bradykinin is a potent endothelium-dependent vasodilator, causes contraction of non-vascular smooth muscle, increases vascular permeability and also is involved in the mechanism of pain. | | | In some aspects, it has similar actions to that of histamine, and like histamine is released from venules rather than arterioles. | | | Bradykinin was to prove a new autopharmacological principle, i.e., a substance that is released in the body by a metabolic modification from precursors, which are pharmacologically active. |

| | Diabetes: Effect of captopril, losartan, and bradykinin o... @ HighBeam Research |
| | Effect of acute captopril treatment on the 15-min ITT in aging rats and mean blood pressure. | | | Rats received captopril (2 mg/kg body wt) or losartan (15 mg/kg body wt) orally 6 and 1 h before the experiment, or bradykinin (100 [Mu]g i.p.), as described in figure legends, before the experiment. | | | (52) demonstrated in isolated rat heart that bradykinin, at a concentration that does not affect coronary flow, mimics the insulin-induced translocation of both GLUT4 and GLUT1, and Isami et al. |

| | 731 - Abstract (11th CROI) |
| | In contrast, infusion into animals treated with PI (3 days or 6 weeks) did not promote a decrease in blood pressure (85±5 mm Hg). | | | HIV Protease Inhibitors Impair Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase-mediated Vasodilation in Response to Acetylcholine and Bradykinin | | | Conclusions: We conclude that HIV PI promote the up-regulation of caveolin in endothelial cells which subsequently inhibits endothelial nitric oxide synthase activity and contributes to endothelial-mediated dysfunction of blood pressure. |

| | HON Allergy Glossary Bradykinin |
| | Bradykinin increases vascular permeability, dilates blood vessels, contracts non-vascular smooth muscle, and causes pain. | | | The kinin system is a group of proteins, which ultimately produce the nonapeptide bradykinin. |

| | Preparation of a Photoactivable Ligand for Bradykinin Receptors |
| | Most of physiological effects of bradykinin is due to its effect on bradykinin B2 receptors. | | | There is no reports of preparation of a photoactivatable analogue of bradykinin reactive; with solubilized bradykinin B2 receptors. | | | In this study we report preparation of a photoactivatable iodinatable analogue of bradykinin reactive with soluble bradykinin B2 receptors. |
