Abstract

Since publication of the previous edition of this Handbook in 1970, much new information has been gathered about kininases, the enzymes that inactivate kinins. This chapter provides a survey and update of research on kininases and enzymes that convert longer kinin peptides to the nonapeptide, bradykinin.
