Species-specific pharmacology of maximakinin, an amphibian homologue of bradykinin: putative prodrug activity at the human B(2) receptor and peptidase resistance in rats

Maximakinin (MK), an amphibian peptide possessing the C-terminal sequence of bradykinin (BK), is a BK B(2) receptor (B(2)R) agonist eliciting prolonged signaling. We reinvestigated this 19-mer for species-specific pharmacologic profile, in vivo confirmation of resistance to inactivation by angiotens...
