Substance P and beta endorphin mediate electroacupuncture induced analgesic activity in mouse cancer pain model.
Cancer pain impairs the quality of life of cancer patients, but opioid analgesics can not only cause inhibition of respiratory function, and constipation, but also other significant side effects such as addiction and tolerance that further decrease quality of life. Thus, in the present study, the effects of electro-acupuncture treatment (EA) on mechanical allodynia were examined in cancer pain ...
متن کاملElevated immunoreactive beta-endorphin level in ventricular fluid after analgesic electrical stimulation of posteromedial hypothalamus.
Immunoreactive beta-endorphin (beta-EP) in the ventricular fluid of six carcinomatous patients was measured using a specific radioimmunoassay. The subjects were undergoing a surgical procedure for relief of chronic intractable pain. This procedure involved the focal stimulation and coagulation of the posteromedial hypothalamus. Samples of ventricular fluid were collected before and after the st...
متن کاملInfluence ofN-terminal acetylation and C-terminal proteolysis on the analgesic activity of ,-endorphin
Removal of one, two and four amino-acid residues from the C-terminus of f,-endorphin ('lipotropin C-Fragment', lipotropin residues 61-91) led to the formation of peptides with progressively decreased analgesic potency; there was no change in the persistence of the analgesic effects. The four C-terminal residues are thus important for the activity of f1-endorphin, but not for the duration of act...
متن کاملThe Effect of Intensive Exercise on Beta-Endorphin and Serum Cortisol Levels in Elite Wrestlers
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effect of one intensive training session on the changes of beta-endorphin and serum cortisol levels of elite wrestlers. Methods: In this quasi-experimental research with one group and pretest-posttest design, 16 elite wrestlers within the age range of 18 to 25 years were purposefully and selected and they voluntarily participated in the research. ...
متن کاملBeta-endorphin in serum and seminal plasma in infertile men.
AIM To access beta-endorphin levels in serum as well as seminal plasma in different infertile male groups. METHODS Beta-endorphin was estimated in the serum and seminal plasma by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method in 80 infertile men equally divided into four groups: non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA), obstructive azoospermia (OA), congenital bilateral absent vas deferens (CBVAD)...
