Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Enkephalins are primarily found in the brain and spinal cord tissue, specifically in the thalamus and spinal cord. While opiates are sometimes used to treat pain in muscles and bones, the presence of enkephalins in these tissues is not significant compared to their primary location in the central nervous system. Enkephalins are not typically found in kidney, heart, lung, pancreas, or liver tissue.
