Background/Aims: Opioid peptides may contribute to some of the manifestations of hepatic encephalopathy. To address the role of the opioid system in the pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy, three representative opioid ligands were measured in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with hepatic encephalopathy,
