title: The role of enkephalins in the pathogenesis of acute myocardial infarction.
abstract: Finding opiate receptors in the heart, definition of their role in contractility and blood flow regulation (2) as well as our previous data on the decrease of Leu-enkephalins contents in the blood of patients with myocardial infarction (5) are the theoretical prerequisites for the elucidation of the role of Leu-enkephalins in the pathogenesis of acute myocardial infarction.
