Lateralization of dynorphin gene expression in the rat striatum
, 2008 Hemispheric lateralization is well known in the cerebral cortex, but not in subcortical structures like basal ganglia. The goal of our study was to determine whether lateralization was present in the direct and indirect striatal pathways. We studied gene

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2012 The brain is constantly exposed to external and internal input and to function in an ever-changing environment we are dependent on processes that enable the brain to adapt to new stimuli.

Dynorphin (1-17): Lack of analgesia but evidence for non-opiate electrophysiological and motor effects [PDF]
, 2006 Dynorphin and an opiate-inactive fragment des-Tyr-dynorphin produced similar effects on EEG, motor function and hippocampal unit firing. Naloxone had no effect on the actions of dynorphin in these systems and dynorphin failed to produce analgesia upon ...

Mechanism of elevated LH/FSH ratio in lean PCOS revisited: a path analysis
Scientific ReportsPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder affecting 5–20% of reproductive-age women. However, the treatment of PCOS is mainly based on symptoms and not on its pathophysiology.

Dynorphin Binds to P. aeruginosa In Vitro, and Enters the Bacterial Cell Cytoplasm
, 2013 (A–C) Binding of dynorphin to P. aeruginosa; (A) negative control demonstrating no dynorphin staining when cells were not incubated with dynorphin; (B) negative control demonstrating no dynorphin staining when cell were incubated with dynorphin but ...

[3H] dynorphin binding to guinea pig and rat brain
, 1983 [3H] Dynorphin can be shown to bind to the brains of both rat and guinea pigs with approximately 50% specific binding. Characterization of the binding in terms of multiple opiate receptor types supports the kappa selectivity of dynorphin in guinea pig ...

Spinal astrocytes produce and secrete dynorphin neuropeptides
, 2013 a b s t r a c t Dynorphin peptide neurotransmitters (neuropeptides) have been implicated in spinal pain processing based on the observations that intrathecal delivery of dynorphin results in proalgesic effects and disruption of extracellular dynorphin ...

, 1983 Five products of the dynorphin gene--alpha-neo-endorphin, beta-neo- endorphin, dynorphin A, dynorphin A-(1-8), and dynorphin B--were measured in various regions of rat brain and in rat spinal cord and pituitary.

The mechanism of action for the block of NMDA receptor channels by the opioid peptide dynorphin
, 1995 Dynorphin is one of the endogenous opioids that modulates the excitability of nociceptive (pain-sensing) neurons. We have shown recently that dynorphin blocks NMDA-activated currents directly without the participation of kappa-opioid receptors.
