Failure of Met-Enkephalin to Enhance Natural Killer Cell Activity
Several papers have reported the enhancing effects of opiate peptides, like Met-enkephalin, on natural killer (NK) cell activity. We examined the actions of Met-enkephalin on NK activity in blood obtained from 18 different donors, of different ages, many

In Vivo Regulation of the μ Opioid Receptor: Role of the Endogenous Opioid Agents
It is well known that genotypic differences can account for the subject-specific responses to opiate administration. In this regard, the basal activity of the endogenous system (either at the receptor or ligand level) can modulate the effects of ...

Plasma Met-enkephalin and catecholamine responses to intense exercise in humans
Native and cryptic Met-enkephalin and catecholamines are coreleased in response to stress. However, it is not known whether Met-enkephalin and catecholamines exhibit concurrent temporal relationships in response to exercise.

Plasma met-enkephalin, beta-endorphin and leu-enkephalin levels in human hepatic encephalopathy
257-265To address the role of the opioid system in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy [HE] we measured plasma met- enkephalin, beta -endorphin and leu- enkephalin in patients with different grades of HE compared to control subjects and patients ...

Met-enkephalins in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases
Opioid peptides provide a link between the neuroendocrine and immune systems. They modify the inflammatory process through their effect on the synthesis and secretion of cytokines and on the proliferation of leukocytes to the inflammatory lesion. The evaluation analyzed changes in free met-enkephalin concentration values in the serum and colon mucosal ...
