Oral formulation of tissue kallikrein consists primarily of porcine pancreatic kallikrein (PPK) and is used to improve peripheral circulation, menopausal symptoms, and impaired chorioretinal circulation. Although gastrointestinal absorption of tissue kallikrein after oral administration has been reported in nonclinical and

Systemic or local delivery of human tissue kallikrein gene (hTK) has been shown to be an effective strategy to alleviate cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, and tissue kallikrein (TK) administration can suppress glutamate- or acidosis-mediated neurotoxicity in vitro. In the present
The purpose of this study was to determine if autoantibodies play a role in the immunopathogenesis of experimental dry eye disease. Dry eye was induced by exposing female C57BL/6 wild-type mice or hen egg lysozyme B-cell receptor transgenic mice to
A wide variety of high-throughput microarray platforms have been used to identify molecular targets associated with biological and clinical tumor phenotypes by comparing samples representing distinct pathological states. The gene expression profiles of human cutaneous melanomas were determined by cDNA
Bradykinin-related peptides, kinins, ubiquitously occur in the nervous system and together with other pro-inflammatory mediators contribute to pathological states of that tissue such as edema and chronic pain. In the current work we characterized the kinin-forming system of neuronal cells
