Fibrinolysis and Vasoactive Peptides in Anaphylaxis

  • Conference paper
Hypotensive Peptides

Abstract

During the complex sequence of events in allergic and anaphylactic states, proteases, anticoagulants, histamine, 5-hydroxytryptamine, catecholamines, hypotensive polypeptides, and many other biologically active principles may appear in different animal species. The mechanism of activation and/or release of these factors is understood poorly, as are their respective roles in the biochemical chain of events in different types of shock.

This investigation was supported by Public Health Service Research Grants HE-08633 and HE-03784, National Heart Institute.
