The distribution of proenkephalin-derived peptides in the central nervous system of turtles [PDF]

, 1987
The present study was carried out to examine if peptides similar to the various opioid peptide products of mammalian proenkephalin are present in the turtle central nervous system and to determine their distribution.

Methionine Enkephalin Suppresses Osteocyte Apoptosis Induced by Compressive Force through Regulation of Nuclear Translocation of NFATc1

JBMR Plus, 2020
Mechanical stress stimulates bone remodeling, which occurs through bone formation and resorption, resulting in bone adaptation in response to the mechanical stress. Osteocytes perceive mechanical stress loaded to bones and promote bone remodeling through

Maturation of Circulatory Responses to Methionine-Enkephalin [PDF]

Pediatric Research, 1983
The cardiovascular and respiratory effects of the naturally occurring endogenous opiate, methionine-enkephalin, were studied in 23 fetal sheep, five newborn lambs, 15 pregnant sheep, and four nonpregnant ewes. The opiate peptide produced dose-dependent decreases in heart rate and blood pressure in fetal and neonatal lambs but increased heart rate and ...

The distribution of enkephalinlike immunoreactivity in the telencephalon of the adult and developing domestic chicken [PDF]

, 1984
Immunohistochemical techniques were used to determine the distribution of enkephalinlike immunoreactivity in the telencephalon of chicken. The densest accumulation of enkephalinergic neurons and fibers was observed within the paleostriatal complex, the ...

Metropolis simulations of Met-Enkephalin with solvent-accessible area parameterizations [PDF]

Phys. Rev. E 69, 026703 (2004), 2003
We investigate the solvent-accessible area method by means of Metropolis simulations of the brain peptide Met-Enkephalin at 300$ K$. For the energy function ECEPP/2 nine atomic solvation parameter (ASP) sets are studied. The simulations are compared with one another, with simulations with a distance dependent electrostatic permittivity $\epsilon (r ...

Methionine-enkephalin and leucine-enkephalin in human sympathoadrenal system and pheochromocytoma. [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1982
To elucidate the physiological and pathophysiological significance of methionine- and leucine-enkephalin (Met-and Leu-enkephalin, respectively) in human sympathoadrenal system, the contents of these peptides in normal human sympathetic nervous system, adrenal medulla, and pheochromocytomas were determined by specific radioimmunoassays combined with ...

Killing effect of methionine enkephalin on melanoma in vivo and in vitro

Oncology Report, 2017
Melanoma is a common cutaneous malignancy, that is also found in specific mucosal sites, and is associated with a poor prognosis. The aim of the present study was to investigate the cytotoxicity of methionine enkephalin (MENK) for B16 melanoma cells in ...

New Aspects of Thromboangiitis obliterans (von Winiwarter-Buerger's Disease) [PDF]

, 1984
The existence of thromboangiitis obliterans as a clinical entity has been a matter of debate for many years. In contrast to other immunovasculitides there is no organ involvement while peripheral vessels are affected.

Targeted Cell Reprogramming Produces Analgesic Chromaffin-Like Cells from Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Cell Transplantation, 2013
Transplantation of allogeneic adrenal chromaffin cells demonstrated the promise of favorable outcomes for pain relief in patients. However, there is a very limited availability of suitable human adrenal gland tissues, genetically well-matched donors in ...
