Met-enkephalin concentration-dependently and transiently inhibited the ileal twitch contraction and this inhibition gradually recovered with time. Bacitracin, phosphoramidon, thiorphan and captoril did not influence the twitch inhibition of met-enkephalin, but bestatin increased the twitch inhibitory potency of met-enkephalin and terminated it in a manner which almost paralleled that of untreated tissue. Transient inhibition of twitch contraction after tetanic stimulation (post-tetanic twitch inhibition) was obtained. Bestatin increased the potency of met-enkephalin and this was terminated within 2 min. Phosphoramidon tended to increase the potency and delayed the termination of post-tetanic twitch inhibition. Bacitracin, thiorphan and captopril did not influence either the potency or the termination of post-tetanic twitch inhibition. Morphine-induced twitch inhibition was not influenced by bacitracin, bestatin or phosphoramidon. These results suggest that bestatin-sensitive aminopeptidase and phosphoramidon-sensitive enkephalinase take part in post-tetanic twitch inhibition, acting in a different mode of action, and have an important role in the termination of the pharmacological action of endogenous opioids (post-tetanic twitch inhibition) in MPLM. This different mode of response of bestatin and phosphoramidon upon post-tetanic twitch inhibition may underlie that aminopeptidase is a more soluble enzyme and enkephalinase is membrane-bound in myenteric plexus-longitudinal muscle (MPLM).
