Biochem/physiol Actions

The bradykinin (BK) fragment (1-5) (RPPGF) is among the most stable of naturally occurring metabolites. It may be used as a marker for BK production in vivo. It is known that an intact Arg residue in the C-terminus is required for biological activities. BK 1-5 is the minimal peptide that inhibited α-thrombin-induced platelet aggregation and secretion and calcium mobilization. It also prevented α-thrombin from cleaving the thrombin receptor peptide, NATLDPRSFLLR, between arginine and serine. Such antithrombin activities of BK 1-5 may contribute to the cardioprotective nature of kinins.

To obtain blood meals, haematophagous animals are armed with potent pharmacological molecules to overcome several of their hosts' response systems. Among them, a large number of exogenous anticoagulants which target the haemostatic system have been identified and characterised. Studies on

Extensive research has provided few therapeutic agents for the treatment of septicemia. Bradykinin, an endogenous vasodepressor hormone, is a key mediator in the hypotension seen with septicemia. The present investigation shows that a stable metabolic fragment of bradykinin, arginine-proline-proline-glycine-phenylalanine (RPPGF)

Thrombostatin (RPPGF), an angiotensin converting enzyme metabolite of bradykinin, is an inhibitor of alpha-thrombin's ability to activate platelets. We examined the in vivo pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of thrombostatin in rabbits and its ability to inhibit coronary thrombosis induced by electrolytic
