Plasma β-Endorphin, the Menstrual Cycle and Exercise [PDF]

, 1988
The underlying mechanism(s) of exercise-associated amenorrhea are not well understood. The discovery of β-endorphin, an endogenous opioid peptide that was shown to inhibit LH release during the menstrual cycle and become elevated during intense exercise,

Circulating β-endorphin, adrenocorticotrophic hormone and cortisol levels of stallions before and after short road transport: stress effect of different distances

Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 2008
Background Since transport evokes physiological adjustments that include endocrine responses, the objective of this study was to examine the responses of circulating β-endorphin, adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) and cortisol levels to transport stress

Smoking Abstinence Elicits Hyperalgesia: Neural Mechanism, Clinical Implications, and Pharmacological Managements

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
The cycle between nicotine use and pain modulation. Cigarette smoking leads to nicotine entering the body, which binds to nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in the brain, triggering the release of different neurotransmitters, including dopamine (DA), norepinephrine (NE), serotonin (5‐HT), and GABA.

Peroxisomal Localization of the Proopiomelanocortin-Derived Peptides β-Lipotropin and β-Endorphin

, 2010
The peptide hormones ACTH, MSHs, β-lipotropin (β-LPH), and β-endorphin are all derived from the precursor molecule proopiomelanocortin (POMC). Using confocal laser microscopy and immunoelectron microscopy in human pituitary gland, we demonstrate a ...

Ethanol-activated microglial exosomes induce MCP1 signaling mediated death of stress-regulatory proopiomelanocortin neurons in the developing hypothalamus

Journal of Neuroinflammation
Background Microglia, a type of resident immune cells within the central nervous system, have been implicated in ethanol-activated neuronal death of the stress regulatory proopiomelanocortin (POMC) neuron-producing β-endorphin peptides in the ...

Associations Between Prayer Practices, Healthy Behaviors, and Depression Among Iranian Medical Students: A Cross‐Sectional Structural Equation Modeling Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Prayer is a concept that indicates the level of an individual's commitment, attachment, and adherence to worship in life. However, evidence regarding its associations with health behaviors and depression remains limited. This study aimed to examine the associations between prayer practices, healthy behaviors, and depression among ...

Plasma and red blood cell β-endorphin immunoreactivity in normal and complicated pregnancies: Gestational age variation

, 1985
Recent observations suggest that there may be two pools of β-endorphin-like immunoreactivity in mammalian circulation. One of these pools is present in plasma and the other is detected in association with erythroyctes.

Alterations in brain dopamine and serotonin metabolism during the development of tolerance to human β-endorphin in rats

, 1978
Repeated intracisternal injections of human β-endorphin lead to development of tolerance with respect to the catalepsy, analgesia, and hypothermia which are seen following a single injection.
