Genetics of pain, opioids, and opioid responsiveness

Metabolism, 2010
Pain is an integral part of the defense mechanisms required for survival. Several hereditary syndromes of complete or almost complete insensitivity to pain have been identified and include channelopathy-associated pain insensitivity, of which the most likely candidate gene is the α-subunit of the voltage-gated sodium channel known as Na(v)1.7.

Opioids and Opioid Receptors in Peripheral Tissues

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1987
Opioid peptides belonging to the enkephalin, beta-endorphin or dynorphin family, acting on specific opiate receptors may be found in peripheral tissues. Enkephalins have a widespread peripheral distribution, while beta-endorphin and dynorphin may be found locally in the enteric nervous system.
