  • Title: Levels of Immunoreactive dynorphin in brain and pituitary of hyperthyroid and hypothyroid rats.
    Author: Morley JE, Elson MK, Levine AS, Shafer RB.
    Journal: Eur J Pharmacol; 1982 Feb 19; 78(1):125-7. PubMed ID: 6122582.
    Abstract:
    Dynorphin is a potent opioid peptide. Using a highly sensitive radioimmunoassay we have measured the levels of immunoreactive (ir) dynorphin in the cortex, hypothalamus, anterior and posterior pituitary in hyperthyroid and hypothyroid rats. Ir dynorphin levels were increased in the cortex of hypothyroid animals and decreased in the hypothalamus of hyperthyroid rats.
