Alcohol and Endogenous Opioids

, 2016
The endogenous opioid system is involved in alcohol-induced reward and development of alcohol use disorder (AUD). Alcohol exposure induces a number of changes in the endogenous opioid system, both after acute and chronic intake.

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 ...

Intrathecal administration of p-hydroxymercuribenzoate or phosphoramidon/bestatin-combined induces antinociceptive effects through different opioid mechanisms

, 1998
The antinociceptive effect of intrathecally (i.t.) administered protease inhibitors was tested against capsaicin (800 ng) injected into the dorsal surface of a hindpaw.

Spectroscopic studies of dynorphin neuropeptides and the amyloid beta-peptide : The consequences of biomembrane interactions

, 2007
Dynorphin A, dynorphin B and big dynorphin are endogenous opioid neuropeptides. They play an important role in a wide variety of physiological functions such as regulation of pain processing and memory acquisition.

Endogenous and Exogenous Opioids in Pain

, 2018
Opioids are the most commonly used and effective analgesic treatments for severe pain, but they have recently come under scrutiny owing to epidemic levels of abuse and overdose. These compounds act on the endogenous opioid system, which comprises four G

Dynorphin A processing enzyme: tissue distribution, isolation, and characterization

, 1999
Limited proteolysis of the dynorphin precursor (prodynorphin) at dibasic and monobasic processing sites results in the generation of bioactive dynorphins.
