Gluten Exorphin Peptides
Overview
Gluten exorphins are opioid peptides formed during the digestion of gluten proteins, specifically from wheat gliadin. These peptides exert opioid-like effects by binding to opioid receptors in the gastrointestinal tract, where they modulate gut motility, hormone secretion, and mucosal function. Gluten exorphins are of significant research interest for their potential role in celiac disease pathophysiology and gut-brain axis signaling.
