Abstract：
:The activity in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of dynorphin-converting enzyme (DCE) has been studied after voluntary exercise in the spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rat. The exercise consisted of spontaneous running in wheels for 4-5 weeks and the average running distance during the last two weeks was 4.0 km/24h. CSF samples were obtained under anaesthesia from the cisterna magna after penetration of the atlanto-occipital membrane. DCE transforms the members of the dynorphin family of opioid peptides into Leu-enkephalin-Arg6. In the present investigation a radioimmunoassay was used for quantitation of Leu-enkephalin-Arg6 release from dynorphin A1-17 and dynorphin B1-13. The rats that were running had a DCE activity (vs. both substrates) in CSF that was approximately 6-12 times higher than in animals not given the running opportunity. A statistically significant correlation between the two prodynorphin-derived substrate peptides was found in terms of DCE activity. We therefore propose that a single enzyme activity may be responsible for the hydrolysis of dynorphin B1-13 and dynorphin A1-17. Furthermore, a significant correlation was also found between running activity and DCE activity 12-14 h before the CSF was withdrawn. Besides measurement of DCE activity by radioimmunoassay, the formation of Leu-enkephalin-Arg6 was identified by reversed-phase micro-column liquid chromatography and plasma desorption mass spectrometry. The experiment shows that voluntary exercise affects opioid peptidergic mechanisms.
