Endocrine control of hypothalamic and pituitary met-enkephalin and beta-endorphin contents

open access: yes, 1991
This review summarizes the recent findings on the effects of endocrine manipulation on the hypothalamic and pituitary contents of met-enkephalin and β-endorphin.

Met-Enkephalin Effects on Histamine-Induced Bronchoconstriction in Guinea Pigs

open access: yes, 2005
We investigated the effects of the neuropeptide met-enkephalin on histamine-induced bronhoconstriction in an experimental model of asthma. Classic Konzett and Rössler’s method of whole body plethysmography modified by Gjuriš, was applied in the study ...

Immunocytochemical localization of Enkephalins in the brain of the African lungfish Protopterus annectens, provides evidence for differential distribution of Met-Enkephalin and Leu-Enkephalin

open access: yes, 1998
The distribution of various opioid peptides derived from proenkephalin A and B was studied in the brain of the African lungfish Protopterus annectens by using a series of antibodies directed against mammalian opioid peptides.

Effect of Met-enkephalin and opioid antagonists on rat macrophages

open access: yes, 1995
Effects of Met-enkephalin (Met-ENK) and opioid antagonists on H2O2 release by peritoneal macrophages from DA and AO rats were investigated. Met-ENK increased and decreased H2O2 production by macrophages of DA and AO rats, respectively. These effects were

Primary structure of the human Met- and Leu-Enkephalin precursor and its mRNA

open access: yes, 1982
The nucleotide sequence of a complete cDNA copy of enkephalin precursor mRNA from human phaeochromocytoma is reported. The corresponding amino acid sequence shows that the precursor is 267 amino acids long and contains six interspersed Met-enkephalin ...

Enkephalin-encoding herpes simplex virus-1 decreases inflammation and hotplate sensitivity in a chronic pancreatitis model-4

open access: yes, 2011
Ith alcohol and high-fat diet induced pancreatitis at week 10. Minimal staining is typical of peptides in the absence of axonal transport inhibitors since they are rapidly transported to axonal terminals. .

Proenkephalin, [Met]enkephalin, and oxytocin immunoreactivities are colocalized in bovine hypothalamic magnocellular neurons.

open access: yes, 1983
The distribution of proenkephalin and [Met]enkephalin immunoreactivities in the bovine hypothalamo-neurohypophyseal system was studied by use of specific antisera.

Plasma -Endorphin, -Lipotropin, and Met-Enkephalin Concentrations during Pregnancy in Normal and Drug-Addicted Women and Their Newborn

open access: yes, 1983
Most studies of plasma β-endorphin concentrations in pregnant women show that these are highly elevated. This might indicate a role for opiate peptides during pregnancy and in the fetus-mother relationship.

The Opioid Receptor Influences Circadian Rhythms in Human Keratinocytes through the β-Arrestin Pathway

open access: yesCells
The recent emphasis on circadian rhythmicity in critical skin cell functions related to homeostasis, regeneration and aging has shed light on the importance of the PER2 circadian clock gene as a vital antitumor gene.

Effects of met-enkephalin on slow synaptic inhibition in frog sympathetic ganglion

open access: yes, 1980
The influence of met-enkephalin on slow inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (IPSP) in the frog sympathetic ganglion was studied with the help of a sucrose gap technique.
