Identification of the C-terminal flanking peptide of preprocholecystokinin in rat brain by a novel radioimmunoassay.

abstract：:Conflicting results concerning the issue of whether or not chronic morphine exposure induces an increase in CCK biosynthesis have been found in many CNS sites, including the spinal cord, where CCK activity may contribute to the facilitation of the development of opiate tolerance.
