β-Endorphin and Alcoholism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Extensive research over several decades indicates a strong relationship between alcohol use disorders and anxiety. Stress and anxiety are implicated in both the initiation of alcohol consumption and the maintenance of heavy drinking (Kushner et al., 1990; Pohorecky, 1981).

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

open access: yesFolia 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

Opioid Receptors in Immune and Glial Cells-Implications for Pain Control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Opioid receptors comprise μ (MOP), δ (DOP), κ (KOP), and nociceptin/orphanin FQ (NOP) receptors. Opioids are agonists of MOP, DOP, and KOP receptors, whereas nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ) is an agonist of NOP receptors.

Beta endorphins - molecules of therapeutics

open access: yesThe European Research Journal, 2020
Endorphins are endogenous morphine, neuropeptides produced in the pituitary gland. There are three types of endorphins beta-endorphins, enkephalins, and dynorphins. Beta-endorphins are an abundant endorphins synthesized and stored in the anterior pituitary gland; it is a precursor of POMC (Proopiomelanocortin).

JAK-STAT1/3-induced expression of signal sequence-encoding proopiomelanocortin mRNA in lymphocytes reduces inflammatory pain in rats

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2012
Background Proopiomelanocortin (POMC)-derived beta-endorphin1-31 from immune cells can inhibit inflammatory pain. Here we investigated cytokine signaling pathways regulating POMC gene expression and beta-endorphin production in lymphocytes to augment ...

μ‐Opioid Receptor Dynamics in the Parameningeal Tissue During Migraine Attacks

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The possible impact of meningeal μ‐opioid receptor (μOR) binding in migraine remains unknown. This study investigated μOR availability in the cranial parameninges involved in migraine initiation via nociceptor activation. Methods We used positron emission tomography with [11C] carfentanil, and measured μOR availability in meninges and ...
