  • Title: [Participation of agonists and antagonist of opiate receptors in the regulation of contractile activity of lymphatic microvessels of the rat mesentery].
    Author: Khugaeva VK.
    Journal: Biull Eksp Biol Med; 1990 Feb; 109(2):137-40. PubMed ID: 2159812.
    Abstract:
    The contractile activity of the wall and valve of lymphatic microvessels (LM) of the rat mesentery were studied biomicroscopically by optic photometry. Opioid peptides-Leu-enkephalin and dalargin-stimulated LM. Preliminary application of naloxone on the LM prevented the appearance of the LM contractions following the Leu-enkephalin-application. Naloxone did not inhibit contractions of LM previously activated by Leu-enkephalin. It is supposed that opioid mechanisms are involved in the regulation of the LM contractile activity.
