ABSTRACT THERE has been considerable recent interest in endogenous peptides as possible analgesic agents since the isolation of a pentapeptide with opiate-like activity


(methionine-enkephalin) from porcine brain1. Of particular interest is _β_-endorphin, isolated from camel pituitary glands2, and now synthesised3. We report here the inhibitory effect _in


vitro_ of _β_-endorphin on striatal dopamine release from the central nervous system (CNS). Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access
