Asp-Tyr(SO3H)-Met-Gly-Trp-Met-Asp-Phe-NH2

Meccanismo d'azione

Icatibant

Icatibant competitively blocks the bradykinin B2 receptor. Because bradykinin mediates the vascular permeability, swelling and pain typical of hereditary angioedema, the blockade interrupts the acute attack.

Sincalide

Sincalide activates CCK receptors, triggering gallbladder contraction and pancreatic enzyme secretion. This effect is used diagnostically to measure the gallbladder ejection fraction (e.g. in HIDA scintigraphy).

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Icatibant and Sincalide?: Icatibant is classified as "Ricerca (altro)", while Sincalide is classified as "Ricerca (altro)". Icatibant: Icatibant is a synthetic decapeptide and selective antagonist of the bradykinin B2 receptor. It is approved to treat acute attacks of hereditary angioedema (HAE). Sincalide: Sincalide is the synthetic C-terminal octapeptide of the hormone cholecystokinin (CCK-8). As Kinevac it is FDA-approved to stimulate gallbladder contraction for diagnostic imaging. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
Which peptide is better supported by science, Icatibant or Sincalide?: The highest available evidence level is "RCT sull'uomo" for Icatibant and "Studio sull'uomo" for Sincalide. A higher evidence level means more robust data, but says nothing about suitability for an individual. The full body of evidence is on each peptide's own page.
What is the legal status of Icatibant and Sincalide in Germany and the United States?: Germania: Icatibant — Su prescrizione, Sincalide — Non chiaro. Stati Uniti: Icatibant — Su prescrizione, Sincalide — Su prescrizione. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
