Like other opioids, the dynorphins play a role in wide variety of physiological parameters, including pain regulation, motor activity, cardiovascular regulation, respiration, temperature regulation, feeding behavior, hormone balance, and the response to shock or stress. The dynorphins are unusual if not unique, however, in that they frequently modulate

Progress in Neurobiology, 1996
Studies on dynorphin involvement in epilepsy are summarised in this review. Electrophysiological, biochemical and pharmacological data support the hypothesis that dynorphin is implicated in specific types of seizures. There is clear evidence that this is true for complex partial (limbic) seizures, i.e.

Nonopiate Effects of Dynorphin and Des-Tyr-Dynorphin
Science, 1982Intracerebroventricular administration of dynorphin produced potent and long-lasting effects on motor function and the electroencephalogram in rats. In addition, local iontophoretic or pressure ejection of dynorphin consistently inhibited hippocampal unit activity.

Rimorphin (dynorphin B) has been demonstrated to exist together with alpha-neo-endorphin and dynorphin(1-17) (dynorphin A) in the human hypothalamus. The content of rimorphin was comparable to that of alpha-neo-endorphin and somewhat higher than that of dynorphin. This result is quite similar to the recent observations in bovine, porcine and rat neural

Identification of dynorphin a from zebrafish: A comparative study with mammalian dynorphin A
Neuroscience, 2007We report the cloning and molecular characterization of the zfPDYN. The complete open reading frame for this propeptide is comprised in two exons that are localized on chromosome 23. zfPDYN cDNA codes for a polypeptide of 252 amino acids that contains the consensus sequences for four opioid peptides: an Ile-enkephalin, the neo-endorphins, dynorphin A ...

AbstractDynorphin B (rimorphin) is formed from leumorphin (dynorphin B‐29) by the action of a thiol protease from rat brain membranes, in a single step. This represents a “single‐arginine cleavage” between threonine‐13 and arginine‐14 of the substrate. We have observed that in addition to dynorphin B, dynorphin B‐14 is formed from dynorphin B‐29.

In both rats and humans there is an analgesia associated with pregnancy. This analgesia is spinally mediated and involves the kappa type of opiate receptor. The current study demonstrates that intrathecal administration of high affinity dynorphin antibodies produces a significant reduction in jump thresholds during pregnancy (day 20).

Generation of dynorphin knockout mice
Molecular Brain Research, 2001The opioid system has important roles in controlling pain, reward and addiction, and is implicated in numerous other processes within and outside the nervous system, such as mood states, immune responses, and prenatal developmental processes. The effects of the opioid system are mediated by at least three ligands, enkephalin, endorphin, and dynorphin ...

Sites of analgesic action of dynorphin
Life Sciences, 1983Analgesic effects of dynorphin and dynorphin-(1-13) injected into various regions of the CNS of rats were investigated using the tail pinch method. Dynorphin and dynorphin-(1-13) produced a dose-dependent analgesic effect when injected into the third ventricle (3rd vent.) or the nuclei reticularis gigantocellularis and paragigantocellularis (NRGC-NRPG)
