“ Bradykinin (BK), a hormone inducing pain and inflammation, is known to inhibit potassium M-currents (IM) and to increase the excitability of the superior cervical ganglion (SCG) neurons by activating the Ca2+-calmodulin pathway.”
“BACKGROUND The bradykinin (BK)-induced endothelium-dependent relaxation is impaired in the presence of elevated potassium concentration enhancing the vasospastic tendency of large coronary arteries.”

“The M‐potassium current was inhibited by bath application of 100 μM ATP, 10 nM bradykinin , 100 nM angiotensin II and 100 nM endothelin 1 as well as by 10 μM acetylcholine in an ml‐muscarinic acetylcholine receptor‐transformed NG108‐15 cell line.”
“Previous studies have demonstrated that bradykinin hyperpolarizes the cell membrane of subconfluent MDCK cells by increase of the potassium conductance.”
