C3a Enhances the Formation of Intestinal Organoids through C3aR1

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
C3a is important in the regulation of the immune response as well as in the development of organ inflammation and injury. Furthermore, C3a contributes to liver regeneration but its role in intestinal stem cell function has not been studied.

Dextran sulfate activates contact system and mediates arterial hypotension via B2 kinin receptors [PDF]

, 1994
To define some of the mechanisms underlying dextran sulfate (DXS)-induced hypotension, we investigated the effects of either the plasma kallikrein inhibitor des-Pro2-[Arg15] aprotinin (BAY x 4620) or the specific bradykinin B2-receptor antagonist Hoe-140
