Spinorphin, an endogenous enkephalinase inhibitor, enhances physiological opioid signaling by preventing the degradation of endogenous enkephalins, however, its anticonvulsant potential has not previously been investigated. This study evaluated the effects of spinorphin on seizure activity and associated neurochemical alterations in two complementary acute experimental seizure models. The effects of spinorphin on seizure activity were investigated in pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)- and...
