Morphine and the two endogenous mammalian FMRFamide (Phe-Met-Arg-Phe-NH2)-related peptides known as morphine-modulating neuropeptides, F-8-Famide (Phe-Leu-Phe-Gln-Pro-Gln-Arg-Phe-NH2) and A-18-Famide (Ala-Gly-Glu-Gly-Leu-Ser-Ser-Pro-Phe-Trp-Ser-Leu-Ala-Ala-Pro-Gln-Arg-Phe -NH2), were administered intracerebroventricularly (ICV) to mice and the effect of each on colonic bead expulsion time was measured. Each of the three compounds delayed expulsion of a 3 mm glass bead placed in the distal colon. A-18-Famide was more potent than F-8-Famide [ED 50 = 2.3 micrograms (1.2 nmole) and 13.9 micrograms (13.0 nmole), respectively]. A-18-Famide: 1) did not block morphine-induced delay of bead expulsion time, and 2) was blocked by simultaneous administration (ICV) of 1.0 microgram of the competitive opiate antagonist naloxone. These data demonstrate apparent opioid modulatory or agonist-like, rather than antagonist-like, properties of A-18-Famide and F-8-Famide.
