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

The effects of low and high glycemic index foods on exercise performance and beta-endorphin responses

open access: yesJournal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 2011
Τhe aim of this study was to examine the effects of the consumption of foods of various glycemic index values on performance, β-endorphin levels and substrate (fat and carbohydrate) utilization during prolonged exercise.

Innervation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons by peptidergic neurons conveying circadian or energy balance information in the mouse. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) produced in neurons in the basal forebrain is the primary regulator of reproductive maturation and function in mammals.

Effect of anaerobic bout using wingate cycle ergometer on pressure pain threshold in normal individuals

open access: yesIndian Journal of Pain, 2017
Introduction: Published studies reveal that incremental graded and short term anaerobic exercise lead to an increase in beta-endorphin levels, the extent correlating with the lactate concentration.

Period 2 gene deletion abolishes beta-endorphin neuronal response to ethanol.

open access: yesAlcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, 2010
BACKGROUND Ethanol exposure during early life has been shown to permanently alter the circadian expression of clock regulatory genes and the beta-endorphin precursor proopiomelanocortin (POMC) gene in the hypothalamus. Ethanol also alters the stress- and

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).

Current and novel biomarkers in cardiogenic shock

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
A summary of current and novel biomarkers and their potential stages of release in cardiogenic shock. The diagram illustrates the proposed release of the biomarkers during the different stages of cardiogenic shock: progression from cardiac dysfunction/stress, through to inflammation and end‐organ dysfunction.

Oral Self-Administration Of EtOH In Transgenic Mice Lacking Beta-Endorphin [PDF]

open access: yesImpulse: The Premier Undergraduate Neuroscience Journal, 2007
EtOH modifies the production and/or release of endogenous opioid peptides, including -endorphin (Gianoulakis, 2004; Przewlocka et al., 1994; Schulz et al., 1980).

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 ...
