Enkephalins and ACTH in the mammalian nervous system
, 2019 7 p.The pentapeptides methionine-enkephalin and leucine-enkephalin belong to the opioid family of peptides, and the non-opiate peptide adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH) to the melanocortin peptide family. Enkephalins/ACTH are derived from pro-enkephalin,

ACTH, cortisol and IL-6 levels in athletes following magnesium supplementation [PDF]
Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2016 Background: Physical exercise activates the hypothalamopituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and induces the body's inflammatory response. Due to contemporary dietary habits and increased energy expenditure, athletes are susceptible to depletion of magnesium ions.
