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.

When the defence response of the body to infectious bacteria fails, septic shock ensues with hypotension and death. RPPGF,(1-5)-bradykinin, was until recently considered to be an active metabolite of bradykinin. In an animal model of septicaemia (lipopolysaccharide administration to rats)

Alterations in the formation and metabolism of bradykinin (Bk) are hypothesized to play a role in the pathophysiology of hypertension, atherosclerosis and vascular complications of diabetes. However, despite its prominent role in cardiovascular regulation, studies on bradykinin have been limited

1. The involvement of bradykinin (BK) B(2) receptor in acute pancreatitis induced by pancreaticobiliary duct ligation was investigated in rats. 2. The activities of amylase and lipase in the serum, the water content of the pancreas, and vacuolization of the

This study tested the hypothesis that angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors potentiate activation of the kallikrein-kinin system during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The effects of CPB on concentrations of bradykinin and its metabolite bradykinin 1-5 (BK1-5) were determined in 31 patients taking

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)
