Kallikrein immobilized on magnetic beads for activity-based assays using mass spectrometry

open access: yesFrontiers in Analytical Science
A crucial step in drug discovery involves identifying active molecules, which depends on fast and efficient screening assay methods. Kallikreins a family of serine protease enzymes, play a pivotal role in biological fluids and tissues.

Kinins and Kinin Receptors in Cardiovascular and Renal Diseases

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2021
This review addresses the physiological role of the kallikrein–kinin system in arteries, heart and kidney and the consequences of kallikrein and kinin actions in diseases affecting these organs, especially ischemic and diabetic diseases.

Activity of kallikrein-kinin system at patients with asiderotic anemia

open access: yesБюллетень сибирской медицины, 2004
The aim of investigation is to study the state of kallikrein-kinin system (KKS) and proteinase inhibitors at patients with asiderotic anemia prior to and after the treatment. 58 patients with asiderotic anemia prior to the treatment and in dynamics after

Kallikrein 5 induces atopic dermatitis–like lesions through PAR2-mediated thymic stromal lymphopoietin expression in Netherton syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine, 2009
Netherton syndrome (NS) is a severe genetic skin disease with constant atopic manifestations that is caused by mutations in the serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 5 (SPINK5) gene, which encodes the protease inhibitor lymphoepithelial Kazal-type–related

Kallikreins and lupus nephritis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2009
The kidney kallikrein-kinin system plays important roles in inflammation, coagulation, angiogenesis, and regulation of vessel tone and permeability. In this issue of the JCI, Liu et al. provide data that suggest a protective role for kallikrein in animal models of anti-glomerular basement membrane(GBM) antibody-induced nephritis, an experimental model ...

The hepatic clearance of recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator decreases after an inflammatory stimulus

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2000
We have shown that tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) and plasma kallikrein share a common pathway for liver clearance and that the hepatic clearance rate of plasma kallikrein increases during the acute-phase (AP) response.

Exploring Periodontal Conditions, Salivary Markers, and Systemic Inflammation in Patients with Cardiovascular Diseases

open access: yesBiomedicines
(1) Background: This cross-sectional investigation appreciated the role of serum C-reactive protein (CRP), several hematologic-cell markers, and salivary inflammation-related molecules [calprotectin (S100A8/A9), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), kallikrein] to ...

Vaspin inhibits kallikrein 7 by serpin mechanism

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2013
The molecular target of the adipokine vaspin (visceral adipose tissue-derived serpin; serpinA12) and its mode of action are unknown. Here, we provide the vaspin crystal structure and identify human kallikrein 7 (hK7) as a first protease target of vaspin ...

Towards understanding the kallikrein-kinin system: insights from measurement of kinin peptides

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2000
The kallikrein-kinin system is complex, with several bioactive peptides that are formed in many different compartments. Kinin peptides are implicated in many physiological and pathological processes including the regulation of blood pressure and sodium ...
