Summary The new opioid heptapeptide dermorphin, first isolated from frog skin, has been localized immunohistochemically in nerve cell bodies and nerve fibers of the arcuate-periarcuate region, around the organum vasculosum of the lamina terminalis (OVLT) and in the subfornical organ of the rat brain. A role of dermorphin in modulating LHRH release is suggested.
