Kinin receptors B1 and B2 are involved in migration and invasion in gastric, glioma, and cervical cancer cells, among others. However, the role of kinin receptors in breast cancer cells has been poorly studied. We aimed to reveal the impact of B1 and B2 receptors on migration and invasion in breast cancer cells and demonstrate their capacity to modulate in vivo tumor growth.

Angioedema is a health issue that affects parts of the body like the upper pulmonary and gastric pathways and is identified by abrupt, nonpitting enlargement of the skin, mucous membranes, or both. The swelling usually lasts a few hours to 72 hours and may appear as non-puritic, subcutaneous, or submucosal organ edema. It is characterized by localized swelling brought on by the release of histamine.

We studied the inhibitory actions of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on the contractions induced by carbachol (CCh), angiotensin II (Ang II), and bradykinin (BK) in guinea pig (GP) gastric fundus smooth muscle (GFSM), particularly focusing on the possible inhibition of store-operated Ca channels (SOCCs). DHA significantly suppressed the contractions induced by CCh, Ang II, and BK; the inhibition of BK-induced contractions was the strongest. Although all contractions were greatly dependent on external Ca, more than 80% of BK-induced contractions remained even in the presence of verapamil, a voltage-dependent Ca channel inhibitor.

Objective: To compare the effects of acupuncture and moxibustion alone or in combination on the number of mast cells and expression levels of cytoketatin 18 (CK18) and CK19 (marker of Meckel cells), and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), neuropeptide-Y (NPY) and bradykinin (BK) in the local acupoint area of rats with chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG).
Methods: Fifty male SD rats were randomly divided into normal, CAG model, moxibustion, acupuncture and acupuncture+moxi-bustion groups (10 rats in each group). The CAG model was established by gavage of 1-methyl-3-nitro-1-nitrosoguanidine (170 μg/mL,1 mL/100 g, once a week) and 40% ethanol solution (twice a week) for 12 consecutive weeks.
