Background:  Enkephalin and enkephalin-like peptides have been detected in many animal species. In mammals these opioid pentapeptides are cleaved from a common precursor molecule which is expressed in a number of cell types, including neurons and endocrine cells associated with the sympathetic nervous system where they are often co-stored with catecholamines. They are known to be endogenous ligands for Sopioid receptors and are known to mediate analgesia at the spinal level.
