Popis: The kallikrein-kinin prostaglandin system has been shown to exerts several effects on human substrate metabolism.Bradykinin infusion may diminish postoperative insulin resistance of the whole body and increase muscular glucose uptake (Jauch et al 1986).Furthermore BK reduces the postoperatively increased glucose production of the liver (Jauch et al 1988). In volunteers as well as in diabetics it was shown that bradykinin acts together with insulin and has an insulin-like activity (Dietze et al 1982).
