  • Title: [Change in the level of components of kallikrein-kinin system under low frequency acoustic influences].
    Author: Ponomarenko GN.
    Journal: Vopr Med Khim; 1994; 40(1):35-7. PubMed ID: 8122408.
    Abstract:
    Content of components of the kallikrein-kinin system was studied in the plasma of rats treated with low frequency acoustic signals. Low frequency acoustic treatment caused an increase in the rate of kallikrein formation from its inactive precursor prekallikrein, whose content was decreased; antiprotease activity was increased in the plasma mainly due to activation of alpha 1-antitrypsin. At the same time, activation of the kallikrein-kinin system led to a compensatory increase in the activity of kininase. The findings suggest that the kallikrein-kinin system is involved in the formation of the body's responses in the low-frequency accoustic field.
