Over the last few years, protein drugs have steadily gained importance in the clinic. Compared to small molecule drugs, protein drugs are taken up by antigen presenting cells, which degrade the proteins into peptides that are then presented on major histoc ...
Attention has been focused on the possibility of an interaction between the endorphinergic system and ethanol intake. In the present study, the effects of subcutaneous (SC) administration of beta-endorphin (beta-E) (0.25, 1 and 5 micrograms/kg) and/or nalo ...
BACKGROUND: The heart relies on continuous energy production and imbalances herein impair cardiac function directly. The tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle is the primary means of energy generation in the healthy myocardium, but direct noninvasive quantificati ...
Experiments to find a biomimetic route for synthesizing morphine are summarized. Systematic investigations on the phenolic oxidative coupling have been revised and evaluated. ...
We report an outbreak of a "rash" syndrome in patients attending methadone clinics in New South Wales. It presents with a pruritic, exanthematous or purpuric rash involving the trunk, limbs, palms and soles, which develops over a week and proceeds in most ...
The relationship between the opiate peptides Leu-enkephalin and [D-Ala2-Met5]enkephalinamide (DAME) and the initial expression and maintenance of ethanol preference was studied in male Wistar rats. Subcutaneous administration of both peptides prior to the ...
BACKGROUND: Chromaffin cells from the adrenal gland secrete a mixture of compounds that have a strong analgesic effect, especially when administered intrathecally. Many studies in animal models have shown that discordant xenogeneic cell isolates, including ...
The effects of subcutaneous administration of leu-enkephalin (LEU-E) (10, 100 and 300 micrograms/kg) and LEU-E (100 micrograms/kg) plus naloxone (2.5 mg/kg) on ethanol preference and fluid intake have been investigated in rats. Under our procedural conditi ...
