Met-enkephalin immunoreactivity in blood platelets
Picogram amounts (50-150 pg/mg protein) of immunoreactive met-enkephalin material (met-enkephalin in IR) were detected by radioimmunoassay in human, rat and rabbit platelets.

Chronic stressors trigger systemic immune remodeling marked by myeloid expansion and lymphoid suppression, and this immune imbalance subsequently drives tissue pathology through proinflammatory signaling and senescence amplification, with the lung and kidney confirmed as the most vulnerable target organs.

Cardiac synthesis, processing, and coronary release of enkephalin-related peptides
Although preproenkephalin mRNA is abundant in the heart, the myocardial synthesis and processing of proenkephalin is largely undefined. Isolated working rat hearts were perfused to determine the rate of myocardial proenkephalin synthesis, its processing ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims In anesthesia and analgesia, opioids alone or in combination with local anesthetics (bupivacaine, lidocaine, and ropivacaine) have been investigated to prolong peripheral nerve blocks. Ultra‐low‐dose naloxone administration in local anesthetic solutions could lengthen sensory and motor blocks through enhanced opioid effects

Amino Acids and Peptides. XXIII. Leu-Enkephalin Analogs Containing a Fluorinated Amino Acid at Position 2, 4 or 5. [PDF]
Fluorinated analogs of Leu-enkephalin were synthesized by the solution method and the solid-phase method. The synthetic peptides were examined for opioid activities on mouse vas deferens and guinea pig ileum. Among the synthetic peptides, [D-Ala2, Leu(F3)

Highly sensitive in vivo detection of dynamic changes in enkephalins following acute stress in mice
Enkephalins are opioid peptides that modulate analgesia, reward, and stress. In vivo detection of enkephalins remains difficult due to transient and low endogenous concentrations and inherent sequence similarity.

Met-enkephalin and Leu-enkephalin lipolytic activity in human omental adipose tissue is compared with that of morphine, methadone and naloxone. Met- and leu-enkephalin exhibited lipolytic action similar to that of morphine but unlike that of methadone ...

The Opioid System in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy: Functional Role and Therapeutic Potential
Temporal lobe epilepsy is considered to be one of the most common and severe forms of focal epilepsies. Patients often develop cognitive deficits and emotional blunting along the progression of the disease.

Regulation of cellular content of the endogenous opioid peptides Met5- enkephalin and Leu5-enkephalin was investigated in neuroblastoma X glioma hybrid cells NG108-15 grown in both serum-supplemented and serum- free defined media.
