Mu-Opioid Receptor is Involved in β-Endorphin-Induced Feeding in the Meat-type Chick
The Journal of Poultry Science, 2008 β-Endorphin is an endogenous ligand for both mu- and delta-opioid receptors (MOR and DOR), and has an important role in feeding behavior in the central nervous system in mammals. The present study was done to elucidate whether central injection of &

Biosynthesis and release of beta-endorphin-, N-acetyl beta-endorphin-, beta-endorphin-(1-27)-, and N-acetyl beta-endorphin-(1-27)-like peptides by rat pituitary neurointermediate lobe: beta-endorphin is not further processed by anterior lobe [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 1981 Continuous labeling and pulse-chase techniques were employed to study the synthesis and secretion of multiple forms of immunoreactive beta- endorphin by cultured dispersed rat anterior lobe cells and intact neurointermediate pituitary lobe. Cell and medium extract immunoreactive beta-endorphin (specific immunoprecipitation and radioimmunoassay ...

Beta‐endorphins in acute myocardial infarction [PDF]
Clinical Cardiology, 1986 AbstractThe endogenous peptide B‐endorphin (B‐EP) is closely connected with different aspects of homeostasis, behavior, and in particular with the perception of pain. The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between: (a) the level of plasma B‐EP and the intensity of pain in acute myocardial infarction (AMI); and (b) the B‐EP and ...

Pain reactivity and plasma beta-endorphin in children and adolescents with autistic disorder. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 BACKGROUND:Reports of reduced pain sensitivity in autism have prompted opioid theories of autism and have practical care ramifications. Our objective was to examine behavioral and physiological pain responses, plasma beta-endorphin levels and their ...

Beta Endorphins & Wellness [PDF]
MOJ Clinical & Medical Case Reports, 2015 The human body produces at least 20 different endorphins with possible benefits and uses that researchers are investigating. Beta endorphin appears to be the endorphin that seems to have the strongest affect on the brain and body during exercise; it is one kind of peptide hormone that is formed mainly by Tyrosine, an amino acid. The molecular structure
