Popis:	The reinforcing systems of the brain are known to play an important role in the formation of predilection for and dependence on drugs [3]. It has been suggested that the activity of these systems may be modulated by endogenous morphine-like peptides -enkephalins and endorphins [4]. However, information on the direct effect of enkephalins on the reinforcing system is limited and contradictory [i0, 12]. Moreover, there have been virtually no studies of the effect of Leuand Met-enkephalins (LE and ME respectively) on the "punishment" system.
