Correlation between ovarian steroidogenesis and beta-endorphin in the Lizard Uromastyx acanthinura: Immunohistochemical approach. [PDF]

Folia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2010
In Mammals, opioid peptides are involved in various physiological processes including the reproductive function. The knowledge of the distribution of beta-endorphin, one of opioid peptides in Reptiles ovaries is very limited. Therefore, the present study

Psychophysical responses to a speech stressor: Correlation of plasma beta-endorphin levels at rest and after psychological stress with thermally measured pain threshold in patients with coronary artery disease [PDF]

, 1995
OBJECTIVES: We tested the hypothesis that psychological stress alters plasma levels of opioid peptides and that these plasma levels are related to pain perception in patients with coronary artery disease.

AAV gene therapy vectors in the TMJ

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1561-1566, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objectives The goal of this project was to evaluate the use of two adeno‐associated viral vector serotypes, adeno‐associated viral vectors (AAV)‐2 and AAV‐6, approved for and used for gene therapy in humans, for the delivery of therapeutic genes to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and the attendant sensory nerves.

Within‐day bidirectional associations between physical activity and affect: A real‐time ambulatory study in persons with and without depressive and anxiety disorders

Depression and Anxiety, Volume 39, Issue 12, Page 922-931, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Ambulatory assessments offer opportunities to study physical activity level (PAL) and affect at the group and person‐level. We examined bidirectional associations between PAL and affect in a 3‐h timeframe and evaluated whether associations differ between people with and without current or remitted depression/anxiety.
