The distribution of multiple opiate receptors in bovine brain. 1981

M Ninkovic, and S P Hunt, and P C Emson, and L L Iversen

The distribution of mu and delta opiate receptors in bovine brain has been investigated using the selective radioligands [3H]morphine and D-[3H]Ala2, D-Leu5-enkephalin. Their distributions were found to vary independently through different brain areas with up to a 10-fold difference between the ratio of mu to delta binding sites for the substantia nigra and the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus.

D009020	Morphine	The principal alkaloid in opium and the prototype opiate analgesic and narcotic. Morphine has widespread effects in the central nervous system and on smooth muscle.

D011957	Receptors, Opioid	Cell membrane proteins that bind opioids and trigger intracellular changes which influence the behavior of cells. The endogenous ligands for opioid receptors in mammals include three families of peptides, the enkephalins, endorphins, and dynorphins. The receptor classes include mu, delta, and kappa receptors. Sigma receptors bind several psychoactive substances, including certain opioids, but their endogenous ligands are not known.

D001921	Brain	The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM.	Encephalon

D004745	Enkephalins	One of the three major families of endogenous opioid peptides. The enkephalins are pentapeptides that are widespread in the central and peripheral nervous systems and in the adrenal medulla.	Enkephalin
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.	Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D016308	Enkephalin, Leucine-2-Alanine	A delta-selective opioid (ANALGESICS, OPIOID). It can cause transient depression of mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate.	2-Alanyl-Leucine Enkephalin,5-Leucine-2-Alanine Enkephalin,D-Ala(2)-D-Leu(5)-Enkephalin,Enkephalin-Leu,Ala(2),Leucine Enkephalin-2-Alanine,BW-180C,DADLE,Leu-Enkephalin-2-Ala,2 Alanyl Leucine Enkephalin,5 Leucine 2 Alanine Enkephalin,BW 180C,BW180C,Enkephalin, 2-Alanyl-Leucine,Enkephalin, 5-Leucine-2-Alanine,Enkephalin, Leucine 2 Alanine,Enkephalin-2-Alanine, Leucine,Leu Enkephalin 2 Ala,Leucine Enkephalin 2 Alanine,Leucine-2-Alanine Enkephalin
