SUMMARY

1. Two types: bradykinin & kallidin.

2. Actions resemble those of histamine: visceral smooth muscle contraction, vascular smooth muscle relaxation (through the action of NO), vasodilation, increased capillary permeability, attracts leukocytes.

3. Both formed by high molecular weight (high-MW) and low-MW kininogen, after being cleaved by proteases called kallikreins.

4. Formed in sweat glands, salivary glands, exocrine pancreas.

5. Both kinins are inactivated by kininase I & II.
