Opioid Receptors of the Central Amygdala and Morphine-Induced Antinociception
The amygdala is a forebrain region, which is known as a modulator of pain sensation. The amygdala, particularly the central nucleus, has high concentrations of enkephalins relative to dynorphins and has high concentrations of opioid receptors. We here studied the role of central nuclei of amygdala in morphine antinociception. Methods: In this study, we used 130 male Wistar rats (200- 250g). Bil...
متن کاملOpioid Receptors Gene Polymorphism and Heroin Dependence in Iran
Introduction: Genes often have multiple polymorphisms that interact with each other and the environment in different individuals. Variability in the opioid receptors can influence opiate withdrawal and dependence. In humans, A118G Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) on μ-Opioid Receptor (MOR), 36 G>T in κ-Opioid Receptor (KOR), and T921C in the δ-Opioid Receptor (DOR) have been...
متن کاملOpioid receptors
centuries, both in amedicinal and ‘recreational’ manner. Indeed, findings of fossilized opium poppy seeds dating as far back as 30 000 yr ago suggest the use of opium by Neanderthal man. In 1799, Friedrich Serturner discovered the major active ingredient of opium, which he named morphine and opioid pharmacology was born. Morphine and its derivates are used today for the treatment of acute and c...
متن کاملOpioid receptors role on anti-nociceptive effects of the aqueous extracts of Melissa Officinalis in mice
Introduction: Melissa Officinalis (MO) overgrows in different parts of Iran. In previous studies, ethanol extract of aerial parts (leaf & stem) of MO showed anti-nconvulsant and sedative effects in rats. This study was designed to evaluate anti-nociceptive effects in different doses of aqueous decoction extracts of MO and the role of opioid receptors in rats. Methods: In this experimental stud...
متن کاملSex differences in opioid analgesia and addiction: interactions among opioid receptors and estrogen receptors
Opioids are widely used as the pain reliever and also notorious for being addictive drugs. Sex differences in the opioid analgesia and addiction have been reported and investigated in human subjects and animal models. Yet, the molecular mechanism underlying the differences between males and females is still unclear. Here, we reviewed the literature describing the sex differences in analgesic re...
