Involvement of bradykinin and bradykinin B1 receptor in patients with endometriosis

open access: yesExperimental and Therapeutic Medicine, 2021
Endometriosis (EM), a benign aseptic inflammatory disease, is associated with the presence of endometrial foci. Pain, one of its typical symptoms, has been reported as a constant stressor, but the etiology and pathogenesis of EM-associated pain are unclear.

The angiogenic response to Bradykinin "in vitro" : the role of Bradykinin receptors in hypoxic hearts and tumors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
End organ damage resulting from hypertension is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. In hypertension, left ventricular mass increases resulting in left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). LVH increases the risk of heart failure and sudden

Fever-like temperature modification differentially affects in vitro signaling of bradykinin B-1 and B-2 receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The bradykinin (BK) B-2 and B-1 receptors (B2R, B1R) belong to the rhodopsin-like G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and are involved in (patho)physiological processes such as blood pressure regulation or inflammation.

C-terminal fusion of eGFP to the bradykinin B-2 receptor strongly affects down-regulation but not receptor internalization or signaling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A functional comparison was made between the wildtype bradykinin B, receptor (B(2)wt) and the chimera B(2)eGFP (enhanced green-fluorescent protein fused to the C-terminus of B(2)Wt), both stably expressed in HEK 293 cells.

Polymorphisms in the bradykinin B2 receptor gene and childhood asthma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Bradykinin has been suggested as one of the key mediators of bronchial asthma. Polymorphisms with a potential functional relevance have been described in the B2 bradykinin receptor gene.

Kinin-B1 receptors in ischaemia-induced pancreatitis: Functional importance and cellular localisation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In this study we compare the role of kininB1 and B2 receptors during ischaemia/reperfusion of rat pancreas. Our investigations were prompted by the observation that infusion of a kininB2 receptor antagonist produced significant improvement in acute ...

Direct Gαq Gating Is the Sole Mechanism for TRPM8 Inhibition Caused by Bradykinin Receptor Activation

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: Activation of Gαq-coupled receptors by inflammatory mediators inhibits cold-sensing TRPM8 channels, aggravating pain and inflammation. Both Gαq and the downstream hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4, 5-bisphosphate (PIP2) inhibit TRPM8. Here, I

Bradykinin receptors in intestinal smooth muscles and their post-receptor events related to calcium

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 1993
The effects of trifluoperazine and verapamil on bradykinin- and des-Arg9-bradykinin induced responses of isolated rat duodenum and guinea-pig ileum were investigated to elucidate post-bradykinin receptor events.

Kinin B2 Receptor Mediates Cisplatin-Induced Painful Peripheral Neuropathy by Intracellular Kinase Pathways and TRPA1 Channel Sensitisation

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2023
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is a severe clinical problem frequently associated with cisplatin use. Although its pathophysiology is poorly understood, it is known that kinin receptors and the transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1 ...
