Bradykinin acetate is an effective endothelium-dependent vasodilator that can lower blood pressure. It induces contraction of bronchial and intestinal non-vascular smooth muscle, increases vascular permeability, and participates in pain mechanisms. It is a potent vasodilator peptide that stimulates specific endothelial B2 receptors, causing the release of prostacyclin, NO, and EDHF.
