Abstract excerpt

In the present study, functional interactions between [Met5]-enkephalin (ME), naloxone and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) immunostaining and secretion have been assessed in mixed brain cell cultures from embryonic day 17 mice. Adding ME alone or together with LPS to th...
