  • Title: Renal hyperfiltration states: relationship to kallikrein and kinins.
    Author: Mayfield RK, Jaffa AA, Edmundson AW, Harvey JN.
    Journal: Agents Actions Suppl; 1992; 38 ( Pt 3)():142-8. PubMed ID: 1281377.
    Abstract:
    Animal models and humans with glomerular hyperfiltration and hyperperfusion secondary to diabetes or high protein diet show increased renal production of kallikrein and kinins. Acute aminoacid infusion or ingestion also raises GFR, RPF and urinary kinins. Treatment with aprotinin or a kinin receptor antagonist reverses or prevents hyperfiltration in these rat models.
