Abstract
⺠Two new peptides derived from mouse pro-NPFFA (crypteins) were synthesized. ⺠Effects of crypteins were compared with NPFF in the hot-plate and tail-immersion tests in mice. ⺠Both crypteins, similarly to NPFF, inhibited morphine-induced antinociception. ⺠Anti-opioid effects of crypteins were inhibited by NPFF receptors antagonist, RF9. ⺠Both crypteins derived from mouse NPFFA exert NPFF-like effects.
