Endomorphin-2 is a cyclic peptide that has been shown to have analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. It binds to the kappa-opioid receptor and inhibits locomotion in mice. It also has shown to be effective at treating bowel disease in vivo models. The biological properties of endomorphin-2 include its ability to stimulate the release of neurokinin-1 from trigeminal nerve endings, which then stimulates the release of substance P from sensory neurons. Endomorphin-2 does not bind to receptors for endomorphin 1 or endomorphin 3, but it does bind with high affinity to the neurokinin-1 receptor.
