Method for measurement of human urinary kininase activity. 1979

G Porcelli, and M Di Jorio, and M Ranieri, and L Ranalli, and L D'Acquarica

A method was developed to measure kininase activity in human urine. The method consists of dialysis of human centrifuged urine sample against phosphate buffer and partial fractionation of A-50 Sephadex column. The enzymatic property of urinary kininase, which destroys bradykinin when incubated, is estimated from its effect on a definite amount of bradykinin, using rat uterus.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D007703 Peptidyl-Dipeptidase A A peptidyl-dipeptidase that catalyzes the release of a C-terminal dipeptide, oligopeptide-|-Xaa-Yaa, when Xaa is not Pro, and Yaa is neither Asp nor Glu. Thus, conversion of ANGIOTENSIN I to ANGIOTENSIN II, with increase in vasoconstrictor activity, but no action on angiotensin II. It is also able to inactivate BRADYKININ, a potent vasodilator; and has a glycosidase activity which releases GPI-anchored proteins from the membrane by cleaving the mannose linkage in the GPI moiety.

D001920 Bradykinin A nonapeptide messenger that is enzymatically produced from KALLIDIN in the blood where it is a potent but short-lived agent of arteriolar dilation and increased capillary permeability. Bradykinin is also released from MAST CELLS during asthma attacks, from gut walls as a gastrointestinal vasodilator, from damaged tissues as a pain signal, and may be a neurotransmitter.
