Bradykinin-bradykinin 2 receptor and oxidative stress
Introduction Bradykinin (BK) and its primary receptor, the bradykinin 2 receptor (B2R), play pivotal roles in regulating oxidative stress. While B2R activation has traditionally been linked to elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) and pro-apoptotic ...

Background: Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) has two homologous catalytic domains, the N- and C-domains. Our previous study suggested that Alu insertion (I allele) in the intron 16 of ACE resulted in premature codon termination.

Bradykinin improves postischaemic recovery in the rat heart: role of high energy phosphates, nitric oxide, and prostacyclin [PDF]
Objective: The aim was to define: (1) whether bradykinin administration during reperfusion improves postischaemic myocardial recovery; (2) whether high energy phosphate compounds are involved in the protective effects of bradykinin; and (3) whether ...

Abstract figure legend We used an intersectional approach with recombinase‐expressing mice and adeno‐associated virus to map and modulate distinct nociceptive afferents in the vagal ganglia. TRPV1+P2X2+ neurons resided in the nodose ganglion (N), innervated the lungs (many projected into the alveoli) but not the trachea, and projected to the nucleus ...

Abstract figure legend Regulatory mechanisms such as alternative splicing, post‐translational modification, membrane trafficking, and protein interactions control channel gating, membrane abundance, and overall activity of PIEZO2. Proper regulation supports PIEZO2‐dependent proprioceptive, somatosensory, nociceptive, pruriceptive and interoceptive ...

Background: Orexin A regulates sleep–wake cycles, arousal, and energy homeostasis, linking it to the renin–angiotensin system and substance P. Dysfunction in these pathways occurs in acute and long-term COVID-19, including post-COVID syndrome.

Bradykinin-mediated angioedema [PDF]
Angioedema and urticaria often constitute a challenge in daily clinical practice. They may either co- -occur or present as independent conditions. They are characterized by a complex pathomechanism, and their symptoms may be triggered by diverse factors. These differences are crucial for developing a successful treatment regimen.

Abstract Enteropathogenic bacteria are a major cause of morbidity and mortality globally. While mouse models have been indispensable in advancing our understanding of infectious enteric diseases, key differences in intestinal microbiota and immunobiology between mice and humans underscore the need for alternative mammalian models that better ...
