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 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 ...

Lithium reverses mechanical allodynia through a mu opioid-dependent mechanism

Molecular Pain, 2018
Background Lithium is widely used to treat bipolar disorders and displays mood stabilizing properties. In addition, lithium relieves painful cluster headaches and has a strong analgesic effect in neuropathic pain rat models. Objectives To investigate the

Acidosis stimulates beta-endorphin release during exercise

, 1994
Elevated blood levels of beta-endorphin have been associated with high-intensity exertion, but the stimulus for beta-endorphin release is unknown. Some studies of exercise have associated beta-endorphin release with increased exertion levels, but other ...

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

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

Is there a role for cannabidiol in obesity, metabolic syndrome and binge eating?

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most abundant phytocannabinoids isolated from the Cannabis sativa plant. CBD is a lipophilic, non‐intoxicating substance that differently from Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9‐THC) does not present the typical profile of a drug of abuse.

A Study on the Addictive Feature of Nonsuicidal Self‐Injury in Adolescents With Depression Disorders and Its Correlation With Serum Beta‐Endorphin Concentration and Neural Reward Responsiveness

iRADIOLOGY
Background Nonsuicidal self‐injury (NSSI) in adolescents with depression disorders often exhibits addictive patterns, potentially linked to serum beta‐endorphin levels and neural reward responsiveness.

Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic primary pain (CPP) persisting for more than 3 months, associated with significant emotional distress without any known underlying cause, is an unmet medical need. Traditional or adjuvant analgesics do not provide satisfactory pain relief for a great proportion of these patients.
