“…This is supported by the anti-inflammatory peptides, which inhibit neutrophil aggregation and regulate expression of adhesion molecules (such asselectins and integrins) on the surface of leukocytes (Camussi, Tetta, & Baglioni, 1990;Zouki, Ouellet, & Filep, 2000). Opioid peptides bind to opioid receptors present in both the central and peripheral nervous systems; they are involved in the regulations of pain (Labuz, Celik, Zimmer, & Machelska, 2016;Madden, Akil, Patrick, & Barchas, 1977), a person's mood through their effect on dopamine release (Spanagel, Herz, & Shippenberg, 1990), drinking and feeding (Duraffourd et al, 2012;Kaneko, Yoshikawa, & Ohinata, 2012;Reid, 1985), sleep (Wang & Teichtahl, 2007), body temperature (Clark, 1979), stress responses (Madden et al, 1977;Shavit, Lewis, Terman, Gale, & Liebeskind, 1984), sexual maturation by modulating secretion of luteinizing hormone (Blank, Panerai, & Friesen, 1979), taste preferences (Drenowski, Krahn, Demitrack, Nairn, & Gosnell, 1992), and in the development of the nervous system (Zagon & McLaughlin, 1991). They are usually referred to as opioid receptor ligands that exhibit morphine-like effects, which can be inhibited by naloxone (Meisel, 1998;Park & Nam, 2015;Silva & Malcata, 2005;Wada & Lönnerdal, 2014).…”
