Biochem Pharmacol
Bradykinin (BK) is an endogenous peptide involved in vascular permeability and inflammation. It has opposite effects (inducing hyperalgesia or antinociception) when administered directly in the central nervous system. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether BK may also present this dual effect when injected peripherally in a PGE-induced nociceptive pain model, as well as to investigate the possible mechanisms of action involved in this event in mice.
