Biochem/physiol Actions

β-Casomorphin Fragment 1-5 (BCM5), an opioid receptor agonist, is a member of the β-casomorphin peptide family derived from β-casein. β-casomorphins are used to study their differential effects on processes such as hyperglycemia, oxidative stress, opioid signalling and immunosuppression.

We studied the effect of beta-casomorphin-5 (mu-acting opioid peptides derived from milk protein beta-casein) on neurite outgrowth of mouse neuroblastoma cell line, Neuro-2a. Beta-casomorphin-5 stimulated neurite outgrowth of Neuro-2a cells in a naloxone-reversible manner. The stimulating effect of beta-casomorphin-5 was

The present study was aimed to investigate the possible effects of beta-casomorphin-7, against hyperglycemia and free radical-mediated oxidative stress in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats by assaying the blood glucose level and the activity of plasma enzymatic antioxidants, such as superoxide dismutase

Milk is the source of beta-casomorphins--biologically active peptides with opioid activity--which are suspected to play various roles in the human body. The local influence of exogenous opioid peptides on gastrointestinal functions has been widely reported. After passing the gut barrier

The spatial structure of beta-casomorphin-5 molecule--H-Tyr-Pro-Phe-Pro-Gly-OH has been investigated by the theoretical conformational analysis method. The results indicate that the conformational properties of the molecule can be represented by a large number of structures having twelve different backbone forms.

Cyclic analogues of the beta-casein-derived opioid peptide beta-casomorphin-5 (H-Tyr-Pro-Phe-Pro-Gly-OH) were prepared through substitution of the Pro2 residue with various alpha,omega-diamino acid residues (lysine, ornithine, 2,4-diaminobutyric acid) and cyclization of the omega-amino group to the C-terminal carboxyl function.
