Background Information
Proenkephalin-A (PENK) is also named as Synenkephalin, Met-enkephalin and Opioid growth factor (OGF), and belongs to the opioid neuropeptide precursor family. PENK is a neuropeptide that competes with and mimics the effects of opiate drugs. They play a role in a number of physiologic functions, including pain perception and responses to stress (PMID:7057924). PENK hypermethylation is also associated with bladder cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, colorectal cancer, and prostate cancer (PMID:36403035). Proenkephalin (PENK) represents a new candidate to determine kidney function. This peptide is cleaved from the precursor peptide preproenkephalin A alongside enkephalins (endogenous opioids) and is filtrated in the glomerulus (PMID: 33636859).
