Age related changes of enkephalin in rat spinal cord.

Abstract:

:Met-enkephalin immunoreactive material content was found to be decreased in the cervical and thoracic segments of the spinal cord from rats aged 25 months as compared to young, 3-month-old, rats. No age-related variations were detectable at the lumbar level. Bio-Gel P 30 column chromatography of thoracic segment extracts indicates that the composition of the immunoreactive material is similar in the two age-groups investigated. At the thoracic level opiate receptor binding was also measured. Opiate receptor number is increased in the thoracic segments of the spinal cord from older rats. These age-related changes in immunoreactive Met-enkephalin content and opiate receptor number at spinal levels may contribute to determine an altered pain sensitivity during aging.
