Vascular remodeling and the kallikrein-kinin system [PDF]
Remodeling of the arterial wall occurs mainly as a consequence of increased wall stress caused by hypertension. In this issue of the JCI, Azizi et al. report that in humans with a kallikrein gene polymorphism that lowers kallikrein activity, the brachial artery undergoes eutrophic inward remodeling in the absence of hypertension or other hemodynamic ...

ABSTRACT Background and aims Non‐alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) affects about a quarter of the world's population. Liver biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosing the progressive form of NAFLD called Non‐alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) but it is invasive, prone to sampling errors and observer variability, and impractical for widespread ...

Intravenous lanadelumab for the treatment of moderately ill COVID‐19 patients
Aims Kallikrein‐kinin system (KKS) dysregulation is hypothesized to play a pathogenetic role in COVID‐19‐associated pulmonary oedema. To investigate the efficacy and safety of intravenous lanadelumab, a monoclonal antibody that inhibits plasma kallikrein, in COVID‐19, we conducted a phase 2, open‐label, randomized‐controlled, proof‐of‐concept ...

Loss of Striatal Bradykinin B2 Receptor Alters Anxiety and Motivational Behaviors in Male Mice
Impaired signaling of the bradykinin B2 receptor (B2R) in dorsal striatal neurons decreases anxiety‐like behavior and sucrose preference while enhancing voluntary running in mice. These results reveal a novel role for B2R in dopaminergic circuits that modulate motivation and emotional behavior.

Novel drugs approved by the EMA, the FDA and the MHRA in 2025: A year in review
Abstract In the 2025 novel drug mini‐review, one can take a full measure of the ingenuity that underlies current drug design and development, despite the year's smaller harvest (46 novel drugs) compared to 2024 (53) and 2023 (70). 54% of the novel drugs are first‐in‐class (FIC).
