Riassunto

La caeruleina, nonapeptide attivo della pelle diHyla caerulea, possiede un insieme di potenti azioni farmacologiche sulla muscolatura liscia vasale ed extravasale e sulle secrezioni del tubo digerente. La caeruleina provoca una relativamente prolungata caduta della pressione del sangue nel cane e nel coniglio, contrae potentemente la muscolatura in situ dello stomaco, dell'intestino e soprattutto della cistifellea, stimola poderosamente la secrezione gastrica, la secrezione pancreatica e, in misura minore, la secrezione biliare. In queste sue multiformi azioni farmacologiche la caeruleina risulta più potente rispettivamente della bradichinina, della gastrina e della colecistochinina-pancreozimina.
