| enkephalin, leucine-2-alanine | <chemical> N-(n-(n-(n-l-tyrosyl-d-alanyl)glycyl)-l-phenylalanyl)-d-leucine. A synthetic delta-selective opioid peptide with analgesic properties. Treatment with dadle results in transient depression of mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate. Chemical name: D-Leucine, N-(N-(N-(N-L-tyrosyl-D-alanyl)glycyl)-L-phenylalanyl)- (12 Dec 1998) |
| enkephalin, methionine | <chemical> Endogenous pentapeptide with morphine-like activity. The amino acid in position 5 is methionine. Chemical name: Adrenorphin (human), 6-de-L-arginine-7-de-L-arginine-8-de-L-valinamide- (12 Dec 1998) |
| enkephalinergic | Relating to nerve cells or fibres that employ an enkephalin as their neurotransmitter. Origin: enkephalin + G. Ergon, work (05 Mar 2000) |
| enkephalins | Natural opiate pentapeptides isolated originally from pig brain. Leu enkephalin YGGFL) and Met enkephalin (YGGFM) bind particularly strongly to _ type opiate receptors. (18 Nov 1997) |
