RESUMEN

The venom of V. cincta contains acetylcholine (ACh), histamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT). Blockers of these agonists did not block completely the hypotensive and smooth muscle contractile activity of venom. On smooth muscle, there was a residual slow contraction. The active substance which produced this slow contraction was separated by solvent extraction, gel filtration and TLC. The purified material (which has been provisionally designated "Vecikinin") lowered cat, rat and guinea pig blood pressure, increased amplitude of cardiac contraction, and increased capillary permeability. Vecikinin contracted several smooth muscle preparations (rat uterus, rat ascending colon, guinea pig ileum, guinea pig colon and rat ileum), while relaxing rat duodenum. Its contractile activity was not lost on boiling, but acid or alkali-boiling reduced its contractile activity. It was inactivated on incubation with chymotrypsin and carboxypeptidase but not with trypsin, pepsin or leucine aminopeptidase. It is a peptide, appears to be of low molecular weight, and could be distinguished from substance P, angiotensin, bradykinin and hornet or wasp kinin.
