title: [Effect of beta-endorphin on G-cells in rats with experimental duodenal ulcer].
abstract: Immunohistochemistry was used to study the changes in the number of G cells in the antral part of the stomach of rats (40 animals) with cystamine-induced duodenal ulcer treated with beta-endorphine. In the stomach of rats with cystamine-induced ulcer the number of G cells was discovered to be significantly increased, which was removed by an opioid peptide. Naloxone did not block the action of beta-endorphine. Thus, beta-endorphine changes the number of G cells, the drug action being not associated with opiate receptors.
