Abstract Immunoreactive met-enkephalin was measured in the adrenal, kidney, liver, and intestine of the dog using radioimmunoassay. Adrenal tissue concentrations were 20 to 200-fold higher than the other tissues studied. In response to acute hypovolemic stress, the concentration of met-enkephalin in the adrenal vein of the dog increased 6-fold over basal peripheral arterial levels. These results suggest that the canine adrenal gland is a rich source of this opioid peptide and that the adrenal releases met-enkephalin in response to acute stress.
