1 Bradykinin receptors and signal transduction pathways in human fibroblasts: integral role for extracellular calcium. Calcium kininogen 1 Homo sapiens
2 Bradykinin receptors have been identified in human gingival fibroblasts; the primary signal transduction pathways and their dependence on calcium have been characterized. Calcium kininogen 1 Homo sapiens
3 Binding data revealed a calcium-independent binding of bradykinin to the cell membrane with a receptor density of 25,000 receptors per cell and a Kd of 1.6 nM. Calcium kininogen 1 Homo sapiens
4 Together these results demonstrate the presence of bradykinin receptors in human gingival fibroblasts; these receptors are coupled to signal transduction mechanisms involving the PLC, PLA2, and tyrosine kinase effector systems, all of which require extracellular calcium to achieve maximal activation. Calcium kininogen 1 Homo sapiens
