Preferred Label : receptors, opioid;
MeSH definition : Cell membrane proteins that bind opioids and trigger intracellular changes which influence
the behavior of cells. The endogenous ligands for opioid receptors in mammals include
three families of peptides, the enkephalins, endorphins, and dynorphins. The receptor
classes include mu, delta, and kappa receptors. Sigma receptors bind several psychoactive
substances, including certain opioids, but their endogenous ligands are not known.;
