Title: Plasma levels of beta-endorphin in uraemic patients during haemodialysis. Author: Caruso U, Lezoche E, Mariani P, Elli M, Tisone G, Cravotto E, Casciani CU. Journal: Int J Clin Pharmacol Res; 1988; 8(1):17-20. PubMed ID: 2966773. Abstract: Plasma levels of beta-endorphins (h-beta-END) are reported to increase under condition of stress. The authors have determined the plasma levels of h-beta-END in six uraemic patients before, during and after haemodialysis. They have found a significant increase at each subsequent time. It is suggested that the cause of the increasing h-beta-END concentrations is the intradialytic stress.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
