Nitric oxide is a vasodilator tonically secreted by endothelial cells that is involved in the regulation of arteriolar tone. This study, which includes two protocols, was performed to investigate whether nitric oxide plays a role in the pathogenesis of arterial hypotension in cirrhosis with ascites.

Structural and dynamic properties of opioid peptide E have been examined in an sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micelle. Structural and dynamic studies both indicate that this peptide exhibits greater segmental mobility than typical structured proteins. An nmr structural analysis of adrenal peptide E in
## Endogenous activity at opioid receptors affects the appetitive behavior of Caesarean-delivered rat pups during presentation of a surrogate nipple that provides milk. Blockade of opioid receptors by peripheral injection of naloxone has no effect on responses evoked by the surrogate nipple. Similar
