Safety and Outcomes Associated with the Pharmacological Inhibition of the Kinin–Kallikrein System in Severe COVID-19

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Background: Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) can develop into a severe respiratory syndrome that results in up to 40% mortality. Acute lung inflammatory edema is a major pathological finding in autopsies explaining O2 diffusion failure and hypoxemia ...

A Novel Category of Anti-Hypertensive Drugs for Treating Salt-Sensitive Hypertension on the Basis of a New Development Concept

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2010
Terrestrial animals must conserve water and NaCl to survive dry environments. The kidney reabsorbs 95% of the sodium filtered from the glomeruli before sodium reaches the distal connecting tubules. Excess sodium intake requires the renal kallikrein-kinin

Mutant plasminogen in hereditary angioedema is bypassing FXII/kallikrein to generate bradykinin

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is characterized by recurrent localized edema in various organs, which can be potentially fatal. There are different types of hereditary angioedema, which include genetic deficiency of C1 inhibitor (C1-INH) and hereditary ...

The Kallikrein-Kinin System: Current and Future Pharmacological Targets

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2005
The kallikrein-kinin system is an endogenous metabolic cascade, triggering of which results in the release of vasoactive kinins (bradykinin-related peptides). This complex system includes the precursors of kinins known as kininogens and mainly tissue and

A Missing Link Between a High Salt Intake and Blood Pressure Increase

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2006
.: It is widely accepted that a high sodium intake triggers blood pressure rise. However, only one-third of the normotensive subjects were reported to show salt-sensitivity in their blood pressure.

The effect of increasing the sulfation level of chondroitin sulfate on anticoagulant specific activity and activation of the kinin system. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Oversulfated chondroitin sulfate (OSCS) was identified as a contaminant in certain heparin preparations as the cause of adverse reactions in patients. OSCS was found to possess both plasma anticoagulant activity and the ability to activate prekallikrein ...
