[Leu5]-Enkephalin is an endogenous δ-opioid receptor agonist that modulates pain perception and emotion by binding to opioid receptors[1,2]. [Leu5]-Enkephalin is commonly used in the development of novel analgesic drugs and in the treatment and research of neurodegenerative diseases[3,4].
In vitro, [Leu5]-Enkephalin (5-50μM) treatment of human immortalized keratinocyte HaCaT cells for 21h significantly promoted cell migration and scratch wound closure. [Leu5]-Enkephalin (20μM) treatment of HaCaT cells for 24h significantly up-regulated the gene expression levels of matrix metalloproteinases MMP-2 and MMP-9[5]. [Leu5]-Enkephalin (50μg/mL) treatment of the scallop Chlamys farreri haemolymph for 1h significantly increased catalase (CAT) activity and glutathione (GSH) levels in both haemocyte lysate supernatant (intracellular) and plasma supernatant (extracellular)[6].
In vivo, [Leu5]-Enkephalin (1mg/kg) administered via subcutaneous injection in a mouse model of colorectal distension-induced visceral pain significantly reduced the visceromotor response elicited by 60mmHg pressure stimulation[7]. [Leu5]-Enkephalin (1fM; 5μL) co-administered intrathecally with the peptidase inhibitors phosphoramidon (2nM) and bestatin (0.25nM) in ddY-strain mice induced characteristic nociceptive behaviors (scratching, biting, licking), which peaked at 10-15min and gradually subsided within 30min[8].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | HaCaT cells |
Preparation Method | Cells were plated in six-well plates and grown to confluence at 37°C. A scratch wound was created by scraping the cell monolayer with a P100 pipet tip. Cells were washed once and incubated with 2mL of growth media containing [Leu5]-Enkephalin (5-50μM). After 21h, images were acquired immediately using an AxioObserver FL microscope at ×10 magnification. |
Reaction Conditions | 5, 10, 20, and 50μM; 21h |
Applications | All the doses tested showed positive wound healing effect with 20μM of [Leu5]-Enkephalin being most remarkable. HaCaT cells migrated steadily across the wound from both sides, moving as an orderly sheet of cells with a smooth leading edge. Cell movement was significantly accelerated by treatment with [Leu5]-Enkephalin in a time dependent manner. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Pathogen-free adult male ddY-strain mice |
Preparation Method | Intrathecal i.t. injection of [Leu5]-Enkephalin with phosphoramidon (2nM) and bestatin (0.25nM) in mice. The duration of scratching, biting and licking response induced by [Leu5]-Enkephalin (1fM) in combination with phosphoramidon and bestatin was measured every 5min for the 30min period starting immediately after i.t. injection. |
Dosage form | 1fM; 5μL; i.t. |
Applications | The nociceptive responses induced by i.t. combined injection of [Leu5]-Enkephalin with peptidase inhibitors peaked at 10-15min and declined progressively until cessation at 30min post-i.t. injection. |
