DADLE

DADLE ([<small>D</small>-Ala<sup>2</sup>, <small>D</small>-Leu<sup>5</sup>]-Enkephalin) is a synthetic opioid peptide with analgesic properties. Although it is often considered a selective δ-opioid receptor agonist, it also binds to the μ<sub>1</sub> subtype of μ-opioid receptors.

Treatment with DADLE results in transient depression of mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate.

Its peptide sequence is Tyr-<small>D</small>-Ala-Gly-Phe-<small>D</small>-Leu.
