Bradykinin B₂ receptor (B2R)

Target
B2R
Molecular classification
G protein-coupled receptor, Receptor
01

Overview

The Bradykinin B₂ receptor is a G-protein coupled receptor that mediates the effects of bradykinin, a peptide involved in inflammatory pain and other physiological processes. Activation of the B₂ receptor increases the excitability of sensory neurons, contributing to pain perception. It is ubiquitously expressed and represents a potential therapeutic target for pain management and inflammatory conditions.
