Bradykinin fragment (1-5) is a metabolite of the endogenous vasodilator bradykinin .1 It is formed from bradykinin by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Bradykinin fragment (1-5) (100 nM) increases the production of nitric oxide (NO) in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes.2 It inhibits α-thrombin-induced platelet aggregation of washed isolated platelets (IC50 = 0.5 mM).3 Bradykinin fragment (1-5) prevents decreases in mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate and increases survival in a rat model of LPS-induced septicemia.4
