Summary:The influence of some food loads on the blood kallikrein-kinin system was studied in an experiment on 30 Wistar male rats. Significant changes in the blood kallikrein-kinin system were recorded in the animals after starvation and after glucose injections. Increased alpha 2-macroglobulin and alpha 1-antitrypsin activities in these groups were considered as manifestations of the defensive-compensatory reactions of the body in response to the intensified synthesis of the kininogenase component. Diminution of kallikrein activity observed in the group of animals, that received meat load, was regarded as the result of compensatory adaptation to protein. It has been suggested that the influence of the alimentary factor on the kallikrein-kinin system should be considered in a direct association with other neurohumoral and neuromediator systems of the body.
