Entry term(s) sistema calicreína-quinina
Scope note: Sistema de interacciones metabólicas a través de productos producidos en la nefrona distal del RIÑÓN. Estos productos incluyen: CALICREÍNA, CININAS, CININASA I, CININASA II, y ENCEFALINASA. Este sistema participa en el control de las funciones renales e interactúa con el SISTEMA RENINA-ANGIOTENSINA-ALDOSTERONA para regular la PRESIÓN SANGUÍNEA, la generación de PROSTAGLANDINAS, la liberación de VASOPRESINAS, y el EQUILIBRIO HIDROELECTROLÍTICO.

Scope note: A system of metabolic interactions by products produced in the distal nephron of the KIDNEY. These products include KALLIKREIN; KININS; KININASE I; KININASE II; and ENKEPHALINASE. This system participates in the control of renal functions. It interacts with the RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN-ALDOSTERONE SYSTEM to regulate BLOOD PRESSURE, generation of PROSTAGLANDINS, release of VASOPRESSINS, and WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.
