Bradykinin-mediated hypotension after infusion of plasma-protein fraction. 1982

R F Van Rosevelt, and J C Bakker, and D M Sinclair, and J Damen, and J A Van Mourik

In patients who required volume expansion during extracorporeal circulation, the plasma bradykinin concentration was monitored simultaneously with the mean arterial pressure during infusion of either albumin solution or PPF. The PKA content of the PPF and the albumin solution was 29 and 3 U/L, respectively, measured spectrophotometrically. In six patients receiving 250 ml of PPF, the mean arterial pressure decreased 22% to 54% within 1.5 min after infusion, whereas the plasma bradykinin concentration, measured by radioimmunoassay, increased significantly (p less than 0.0005) during the first minute. In six patients receiving 250 ml of 4% albumin solution, no blood pressure changes were found, and the plasma bradykinin concentration rose only slightly. In vitro, linear correlation (r = 0.94, p less than 0.0005) was observed between the level of PKA of 26 different lots of PPF and the concentrations of bradykinin that were generated in Hageman factor-deficient plasma after incubation with PPF. It is concluded that the hypotensive reactions observed after PPF infusion during extracorporeal circulation are caused by the PKA-induced bradykinin generation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007022 Hypotension Abnormally low BLOOD PRESSURE that can result in inadequate blood flow to the brain and other vital organs. Common symptom is DIZZINESS but greater negative impacts on the body occur when there is prolonged depravation of oxygen and nutrients. Blood Pressure, Low,Hypotension, Vascular,Low Blood Pressure,Vascular Hypotension
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D010446 Peptide Fragments Partial proteins formed by partial hydrolysis of complete proteins or generated through PROTEIN ENGINEERING techniques. Peptide Fragment,Fragment, Peptide,Fragments, Peptide
D010952 Plasma Substitutes Any liquid used to replace blood plasma, usually a saline solution, often with serum albumins, dextrans or other preparations. These substances do not enhance the oxygen- carrying capacity of blood, but merely replace the volume. They are also used to treat dehydration.

D001798 Blood Proteins Proteins that are present in blood serum, including SERUM ALBUMIN; BLOOD COAGULATION FACTORS; and many other types of proteins. Blood Protein,Plasma Protein,Plasma Proteins,Serum Protein,Serum Proteins,Protein, Blood,Protein, Plasma,Protein, Serum,Proteins, Blood,Proteins, Plasma,Proteins, Serum
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.

D005174 Factor XII Stable blood coagulation factor activated by contact with the subendothelial surface of an injured vessel. Along with prekallikrein, it serves as the contact factor that initiates the intrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. Kallikrein activates factor XII to XIIa. Deficiency of factor XII, also called the Hageman trait, leads to increased incidence of thromboembolic disease. Mutations in the gene for factor XII that appear to increase factor XII amidolytic activity are associated with HEREDITARY ANGIOEDEMA TYPE III.
