NEP/CALLA or CD10 is an endopeptidase (E.C. 3.4.24.11) that inactivates numerous neuropeptides, including dynorphin. Dynorphin is an endogenous opioid polypeptide that binds to kappa-opioid receptors with greatest affinity. R1.1 mouse thymoma cells highly express kappa-opioid receptors. In this study, on
