Bradykinin receptors and their antagonists
European Journal of Pharmacology, 1998Bradykinin and related kinins act on two receptor types, named B1 and B2. Initially identified in classical bioassays, these receptors have been cloned and characterized in binding assays performed on plasma membranes of cells expressing the native or the transfected human kinin B1 or B2 receptor types.

General Pharmacology: The Vascular System, 1997
1. The last decade has witnessed a phenomenal increase in our understanding of the pharmacology of bradykinin receptors, and has led to an appreciation of a key role for the peptide kinins as proinflammatory mediators. This short review summarises the major changes that have taken place in the expanding area of bradykinin receptor pharmacology, and ...

New selective bradykinin receptor antagonists and bradykinin B2 receptor characterization
Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, 1990Substantial progress has been made recently in the field of kinin pharmacology with the identification of sensitive bioassay organs and the discovery of bradykinin B2 receptor antagonists. Data obtained with such compounds in various laboratories support the hypothesis that kinins act on multiple (at least two) receptor types.

Bradykinin Receptors in Ischemic Injury
Current Neurovascular Research, 2019Bradykinin (BK) is a major kinin substance in the Kallikrein-Kinin System (KKS) that acts in conjunction with target cell bradykinin receptors and is involved in a variety of systems and organs. Functional regulation and pathophysiological processes such as cardiovascular, renal, central nervous system regulation, glucose metabolism, cell proliferation,

Receptors for bradykinin in rabbit aortae
Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology, 1977Rabbit aorta strips respond to bradykinin (BK) and to the C-terminal fragment of BK, the octapeptide 1-8 BK (Octa) with sustained contractions which are presumably due to the stimulation of specific receptors, because they remain unchanged in presence of phentolamine, methysergide, mepyramine, 8-Leu-ATII, and indomethacin.

Theoretical Study of the Human Bradykinin–Bradykinin B2 Receptor Complex
ChemBioChem, 2008AbstractThe interaction of bradykinin (BK) with the bradykinin B2 receptor (B2R) was analyzed by using molecular modeling (MM) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. A homology model for B2R has been generated and the recently determined receptor‐bound solid‐state NMR spectroscopic structure of BK (Lopez et al., Angew. Chem.

Regulation of Bradykinin Action at the Receptor Level
Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 1990Intact cultured human foreskin fibroblasts can be used as an in vitro system to study the regulatory events related to kinin receptor function. Specific bradykinin (BK) receptor sites (B2 subtype) were measured by direct binding study and correlated with BK-induced biological effects such as the release of inositol phosphates, formation of prostacyclin

Recent developments in the understanding of bradykinin receptors
Life Sciences, 1992The dramatic activities of bradykinin and related peptides as mediators of pain, inflammation and hypotension have been intensely studied for several decades. More recently, the involvement of bradykinin in regulation of ion transport by epithelia, hormone release from endocrine organs, energy metabolism, tissue growth, and leukocyte activation have ...

Advances in the Development of Bradykinin Receptor Ligands
Current Topics in Medicinal Chemistry, 2006Kinins are blood-derived local-acting peptides that elicit specific cellular effects via the stimulation of two related G protein coupled receptors. While the B(2)receptor subtype, constitutively expressed in various tissues, is believed to mediate most of the physiological actions of kinins in healthy conditions, the B(1) receptor, highly regulated ...

Differential Contribution of Bradykinin Receptors in Angiogenesis
2000Bradykinin (BK) contributes to the inflammatory response inducing vasodilation of postcapillary venules and has been demonstrated to induce neovascular growth in subcutaneous rat sponges. In this study the ability of BK to stimulate cell growth and migration in cultured endothelium from coronary postcapillary venules (CVEC) has been investigated.
