The effects of enkephalin derivates with different opioid receptor subtype specificity and naloxone on cardiovascular responses and kallikrein-kinin system (KKS) were studied in anesthetized rats exposed to 30% hemorrhage. Administration of a mu-receptor agonist (DAGO) in early hemorrhage improved mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) responses to hemorrhage. This effect could be abolished by naloxone pretreatment. Moreover, a delayed MAP recovery after hemorrhage could be observed. Treatment with a delta-agonist (DADL) resulted in transient depression of MAP and heart rate (HR). Hemorrhage by itself caused only a slight activation of KKS as indicated by decreased plasma kallikreinogen concentration and reduced kallikrein inhibitor capacity after 20% blood loss. Enkephalin administration did not exert significant effects on KKS. Naloxone pretreatment, in contrast, induced prehemorrhagic activation of KKS, which was potentiated by subsequent hemorrhage. Naloxone-induced activation of KKS could be confirmed by an in vitro study. Taken together these results suggest that the KKS is not involved in MAP and HR responses to enkephalin administration during hemorrhage, whereas it might be implicated in naloxone-induced delayed posthemorrhagic MAP recovery.

D007610 Kallikreins Proteolytic enzymes from the serine endopeptidase family found in normal blood and urine. Specifically, Kallikreins are potent vasodilators and hypotensives and increase vascular permeability and affect smooth muscle. They act as infertility agents in men. Three forms are recognized, PLASMA KALLIKREIN (EC 3.4.21.34), TISSUE KALLIKREIN (EC 3.4.21.35), and PROSTATE-SPECIFIC ANTIGEN (EC 3.4.21.77).

D007705 Kinins A generic term used to describe a group of polypeptides with related chemical structures and pharmacological properties that are widely distributed in nature. These peptides are AUTACOIDS that act locally to produce pain, vasodilatation, increased vascular permeability, and the synthesis of prostaglandins. Thus, they comprise a subset of the large number of mediators that contribute to the inflammatory response. (From Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacologic Basis of Therapeutics, 8th ed, p588) Kinin
