Previous studies have shown that three distinct enzymes, amastatin-sensitive aminopeptidase, captopril-sensitive peptidyl dipeptidase A, and phosphoramidon-sensitive endopeptidase-24.11, played a critical role in the inactivation of enkephalins in isolated preparations. In the present study, therefore, the rank order of the potency of three endogenous opioid peptides, [Met<SUP>5</SUP>]-enkephalin, [Leu<SUP>5</SUP>]-enkephalin, and β-endorphin, in three isolated preparations, guinea-pig ileum, mouse vas deferens, and rat vas deferens, was estimated in the presence of the mixture of three peptidase inhibitors, amastatin, captopril, and phosphoramidon. [Met<SUP>5</SUP>]-Enkephalin was approximately three-fold more potent than [Leu<SUP>5</SUP>]-enkephalin and four-fold more potent than β-endorphin in guinea-pig ileum in which three opioid peptides were indicated to act on mu-receptors. Additionally, [Met<SUP>5</SUP>]-enkephalin was slightly but significantly more potent than [Leu<SUP>5</SUP>]-enkephalin and approximately twenty-fold more potent than β-endorphin at delta-receptor sites in mouse vas deferens. Moreover, [Met<SUP>5</SUP>]-enkephalin was approximately three-fold more potent than [Leu<SUP>5</SUP>]-enkephalin, but sixty-fold less potent than β-endorphin in rat vas deferens in which the opioid-receptor type interacting with enkephalins could not be determined. In conclusion, the well-known rank order of the potency of three endogenous opioid peptides was shown to be altered in both guinea-pig ileum and mouse vas deferens but not in rat vas deferens by the pretreatment of the preparations with the mixture of three peptidase inhibitors.
