Contribution of kallikrein-kinin system to heat-induced substance P (SP) release into the periphery was studied by using plasma kininogens-deficient strain Brown Norway Katholiek (B/N-Ka) and normal strain Brown Norway Kitasato (B/N-Ki) rats. Bradykinin (BK) and SP levels in the sc perfusates of the hind instep were measured by radioimmunoassay. In B/N-Ki rat, immersion of hind paw into hot water (47 degrees C) for 20 min led to an increase of BK (43 +/- s 34 fmol.min-1) and SP (11.1 +/- 9.7 fmol.min-1) in the perfusate, whereas those in B/N-Ka rat (BK 1.3 +/- 1.0 fmol.min-1 (P < 0.01), SP 5.5 +/- 3.5 fmol.min-1 (P < 0.05)) were remarkably less. Heat-induced extravasation (leakage of Evans blue) in B/N-Ka rat was also less than that in B/N-Ki rat (P < 0.05). Results suggest that kallikrein-kinin system is involved in the release of SP into the periphery, ie, BK released into the extravascular space by noxious heat stimulation intervenes in SP release.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007704 Kininogens Endogenous peptides present in most body fluids. Certain enzymes convert them to active KININS which are involved in inflammation, blood clotting, complement reactions, etc. Kininogens belong to the cystatin superfamily. They are cysteine proteinase inhibitors. HIGH-MOLECULAR-WEIGHT KININOGEN; (HMWK); is split by plasma kallikrein to produce BRADYKININ. LOW-MOLECULAR-WEIGHT KININOGEN; (LMWK); is split by tissue kallikrein to produce KALLIDIN. Cystatins, Kininogen,Kininogen,Prekinins,Prokinins,T-Kininogen,Thiostatin,Kininogen Cystatins,T Kininogen

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.

D003677 Deficiency Diseases A condition produced by dietary or metabolic deficiency. The term includes all diseases caused by an insufficient supply of essential nutrients, i.e., protein (or amino acids), vitamins, and minerals. It also includes an inadequacy of calories.
