ABSTRACT
The effects of icv administration of ß-endorphin on secretory activity of dopaminergic neurons is described. Homovanillic and dihydroxyphenyl acetic acid levels in cerebrospinal fluid and extracts of brain tissue were determined after administration of ß-endorphin to animals pretreated or not with saloxone. The results suggest that ß-endorphin interferes with formation of dopaminergic metabolites by acting on opioid receptors
