| Basic description
|
Bradykinin (1-6) is a fragment of bradykinin. Bradykinin activates pain receptors. It induces smooth muscle contractions and activates Ca2+-dependent nitric oxide synthetase. Bradykinin can also increase capillary permeability and stimulate prostacyclin formation. Bradykinin is a potent stimulator of nitric oxide formation by vascular endothelium.
