Synthesis of peptides by the solid-phase method. III. Bradykinin: fragments and analogs. 1978

W K Park, and S A St-Pierre, and J Barabé, and D Regoli

The natural sequence of bradykinin (BK) and 55 fragments or analogs of this peptide were perpared via the solid-phase method. The peptides were purified using ion-exchange (O-carboxymethyl(CM) and partition (Sephadex G-25) chromatography. The purity of each peptide was established by paper and thin-layer chromatography, paper electrophoresis, amino acid analysis, and biological assays. The compounds were tested in anesthetized rats (tested in vivo) and in two smooth-muscle preparations (rabbit aorta strip, cat ileum strip) in which BK produces contraction by stimulating specific receptors of different types. Some of the new peptides are interesting in that they either resist pulmonary inactivation, or are more potent than BK itself, or antagonize the myotropic effect of BK in rabbit aorta strips.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D009130 Muscle, Smooth Unstriated and unstriped muscle, one of the muscles of the internal organs, blood vessels, hair follicles, etc. Contractile elements are elongated, usually spindle-shaped cells with centrally located nuclei. Smooth muscle fibers are bound together into sheets or bundles by reticular fibers and frequently elastic nets are also abundant.

D011817 Rabbits A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

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.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.

D002845 Chromatography Techniques used to separate mixtures of substances based on differences in the relative affinities of the substances for mobile and stationary phases. A mobile phase (fluid or gas) passes through a column containing a stationary phase of porous solid or liquid coated on a solid support. Usage is both analytical for small amounts and preparative for bulk amounts. Chromatographies

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
