Medical (general)
There is no context, I'm afraid. It is part of a list of medical topics studied on a course. This term has to do with humoral regulation (I think).

Kinin-kallikrein (system)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinin-kallikrein_system
The kinin-kallikrein system or simply kinin system is a poorly delineated system of blood proteins that plays a role in inflammation, blood pressure control, coagulation and pain. Its important mediators bradykinin and kallidin are vasodilators and act on many cell types.

Kallikrein Kinin System; Kallikrein-Kinin Systems; Systems, Kallikrein-Kinin
A system of metabolic interactions by products produced in the distal nephron of the KIDNEY. These products include KALLIKREIN; KININS; KININASE I; KININASE II; and ENKEPHALINASE. This system participates in the control of renal functions. It interacts with the RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN-ALDOSTERONE SYSTEM to regulate BLOOD PRESSURE, generation of PROSTAGLANDINS, release of VASOPRESSINS, and WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.

Kallikrein-kinin (system) or KKS
a system produced in the distal nephron of the kidney. Its components are kallikrein, kinins, kininase i and II, and enkephalinase. It is involved in mediation and modulation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, prostaglandins, vasopressins, and in the regulation of sodium-water balance, renal haemodynamics, and particularly blood pressure. The system participates in the control of renal functions and the physiopathology of renal diseases.
Example sentence:
Sometimes also referred to in Spanish as "sistema calicreína-cinina"
In humans, the plasma and tissue kallikrein-kinin systems (KKS) generate bradykinin and kallidin peptides, respectively.
