Abstract

The effect of FK33 824, a stable analogue of methionine-enkephalin, on aldosterone (A), plasma renin activity (PRA) and cortisol (F) secretion were studied in 4 normal subjects. A significantly increased while PRA was unaffected and F decreased afted the drug adrninistration. We suggest that enkephalins may play a role in the control of A secretion by a mechanism of action independent on angiotensin II and ACTH.
