Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Opiates are known to play a role in both analgesia (pain relief) and pleasure (euphoria). They work by binding to specific receptors in the brain and other parts of the body, which can reduce pain and produce a sense of well-being. However, they do not appear to be involved in retrograde transport, which is the process by which molecules are transported from the axon terminals of neurons back to the cell body.
