Opioid receptor affinities of the blood-derived tetrapeptides hemorphin and cytochrophin.
Hemorphin-4 and cytochrophin-4 displayed affinities for mu- and delta-opioid receptors that were in the same range as those observed for the structurally related beta-casomorphins. However, they showed markedly higher affinities at kappa-opioid binding sites when compared to the beta-casomorphins. These blood-derived peptides could be involved in blood pressure regulation.
