Bradykinin-Induced Increase in Total and Effective Blood Flow in Skeletal Muscle

Abstract: The effect of the synthetic peptide, bradykinin, on total and nutritional blood flow through mammalian skeletal muscle in anesthetized rats, cats, and rabbits was studied. The intra-arterial administration of the drug consistently and significantly increases total blood flow through the gastrocuemius muscle of chloralose-anesthetized cats and rabbits. A similar increase in clearance of the dye "Water Blue" from microinjection sites in the spino-trapezius muscle of the rat and clearance of iodide ions from skel… Show more

“…The implication of the work here reported, together with the earlier studies from this laboratory Paldino, Hyman & Lenthall, 1962), supports two major hypotheses relating to muscle circulation: (1) only a fraction of the total blood flow through muscle exchanges solutes with the tissue; (2) the magnitude of this effective flow is governed almost exclusively by local factors.…”

“…Our findings, as well as those of Paldino, Hyman & Lenthall (1962), suggest that locally produced dilators do not exert a general effect on all muscular vessels, but rather act predominantly on the nutritional circulation to divert the restricted flow from the shunts (Hyman & Winsor, 1959). This hypothesis would help to explain many of the paradoxes that arise in interpreting the changes in muscle circulation measured by plethysmographic techniques.…”

“…At first glance, some discrepancies seem to exist between these results and those of Hyman et al 2 and Paldino et al 14 In the latter reports, intra-arterial infusions of methacholine, 48/80 (a histamine releaser), and bradykinin were shown to increase the clearance rate of I 131 from resting muscle concomitant with the increase in blood flow accompanying the induced vasodilatation. The explanation for the divergent results may well reside in the fact that flow was allowed to increase in their experiments, while in ours it was held constant.…”

“…46,[59][60][61] When provided intra-arterially to achieve physiologically relevant concentrations, they accelerate muscle blood flow, mediating vasodilation primarily in the PV and CV, as is observed during contractions. [62][63][64][65][66] Moreover, they increase glucose utilisation in SMT similar to a contraction stimulus. [48][49][50] Thus, both adenosine and kinins may contribute to the multifactorial metabolic control of the physiological responses of SMT during endurance exercise.…”
