- C1 inhibitor (AKA C1-esterase inhibitor) normally inhibits kallikrein, which is responsible for conversion of HMWK to bradykinin

- Deficiency leads to high levels of serum bradykinin → episodes of swelling and edema

- Can treat with icatibant (bradykinin B2 receptor antagonist), C1-inhibitor concentrate, or ecallantide (kallikrein inhibitor)
