The brain's "opiate receptors" respond to endorphins. Endorphins are produced by the body in response to certain stimuli, such as pain or exercise, and are thought to play a role in regulating mood and reducing pain. These endorphins bind to the brain's opiate receptors, which are the same receptors that respond to opioids such as morphine or heroin.
