Dysregulation of dynorphins in Alzheimer disease

open access: yesNeurobiology of Aging, 2007
The opioid peptides dynorphins may be involved in pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease (AD) by inducing neurodegeneration or cognitive impairment. To test this hypothesis, the dynorphin system was analyzed in postmortem samples from AD and control subjects, and subjects with Parkinson or cerebro-vascular diseases for comparison.

Membrane Interactions of Dynorphins,

open access: yesBiochemistry, 2006
The dynorphins are primarily endogenous ligands to the kappa-opioid receptor, but a variety of non-opioid effects have also been observed, including direct effects on membranes. The peptides are rich in Arg residues, a characteristic feature of the cell-penetrating peptides.

Differential Metabolism of Dynorphins in Substantia Nigra, Striatum, and Hippocampus

open access: yesPeptides, 1997
To map the proteolytic enzymes metabolizing dynorphins in brain structures, size-exclusion chromatography linked to electrospray ionization mass spectrometry was used. Enzymes extracted from rat hippocampus, striatum, and substantia nigra were tested for

Characterization of endoproteolytic processing of dynorphins by proprotein convertases using mouse spinal cord S9 fractions and mass spectrometry

open access: yesNeuropeptides, 2016
Dynorphins are important neuropeptides with a central role in nociception and pain alleviation. Many mechanisms regulate endogenous dynorphin concentrations, including proteolysis.
