Journal ArticleDOI
The biology of the opioid growth factor receptor (OGFr).
TL;DR: The history of OGF-OGFr is reviewed, emerging insights into the mechanisms of action of opioid peptide-receptor interfacing are examined, and clinical significance of these observations are discussed.

Journal ArticleDOI
Brain spectrin(240/235) and brain spectrin(240/235E): two distinct spectrin subtypes with different locations within mammalian neural cells.
TL;DR: Adult mouse brain contains at least two distinct spectrin subtypes, both consisting of 240-kD and 235-KD subunits, and one of them, brain spectrin(240/235E), is exclusively recognized by red blood cell spectrin antibody.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endogenous opioid systems regulate cell proliferation in the developing rat brain
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that endogenous opioid systems can regulate the proliferation of cell populations in the developing nervous system and do so through an inhibitory mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased brain size and cellular content in infant rats treated with an opiate antagonist
TL;DR: Results show that naltrexone can stimulate body and brain growth in rats and suggest a role for the endorphin and opiate receptor system in development.
