1: Involved in oxygen transport from the lung to the various peripheral tissues
2: LVV-hemorphin-7 potentiates the activity of bradykinin, causing a decrease in blood pressure
3: Functions as an endogenous inhibitor of enkephalin-degrading enzymes such as DPP3, and as a selective antagonist of the P2RX3 receptor which is involved in pain signaling, these properties implicate it as a regulator of pain and inflammation
