Valorphin, also known as VV-hemorphin-5, is a naturally occurring, endogenous opioid heptapeptide of the hemorphin family with the amino acid sequence H-Val-Val-Tyr-Pro-Trp-Thr-Gln-OH (VVYPWTQ).[1][2][3] It is produced in the body via proteolyic cleavage of residues 33-39 of the β-chain of hemoglobin.[2][4] Valorphin binds preferentially to the μ-opioid receptor and produces effects such as analgesia and self-administration in animals.[1][2] It also possesses cytotoxic and antiproliferative properties against tumor cells,[3][4][5][6] the mediation of which, because they are reversed by naloxone, appears to be dependent on the opioid receptors.[5]
