Tolerance to opioid narcotics, II. Cellular tolerance to levorphanol in mouse brain.
Mice were made tolerant to a large dose of levorphanol, a congener of morphine. Then (3)H-levorphanol was given. The concentration of free, unchanged levorphanol in the brain water (ultrafiltrate) was found to be much higher than required to produce pharmacologic effects in nontolerant animals. The result indicates that tolerance arises from a diminished sensitivity to the drug at cellular or s...
متن کاملCellular tolerance to pulsed hyperthermia.
Transient heating of tissues leading to cellular stress or death is very common in medicine and biology. In procedures involving a mild (below 70 degrees C) and prolonged (minutes) heating, such as hyperthermal tumor therapy, the cellular response to thermal stress is relatively well studied. However, there is practically no data on cell viability at higher temperatures and shorter exposures, w...
متن کاملOpioid tolerance or opioid withdrawal?
To the Editor: We thank Kim et al. for their recent work examining the effect of intraoperative remifentanil on postoperative analgesia in children.1 Certainly, the pharmacokinetic profile of this potent opioid is attractive in modern anesthetic practice, and a thorough understanding of the principles behind tolerance, hyperalgesia, and withdrawal of remifentanil are critical for its safe admin...
متن کاملOpioid tolerance and hyperalgesia.
Opioids have been successfully used for the management of acute and cancer-related pain. Concerns regarding side effects, tolerance, dependence, addiction, and hyperalgesia have limited the use of opioids for the management of chronic nonmalignant pain. This article will review updated information from both clinical and preclinical studies regarding opioid-induced hyperalgesia, tolerance, and d...
متن کاملCellular tolerance at the µ-opioid receptor is phosphorylation dependent
Phosphorylation of the μ-opioid receptor (MOR) is known as a key step in desensitization and internalization but the role in the development of long-term tolerance at the cellular level is not known. Viral expression of wild type (exWT) and mutant MORs, where all phosphorylation sites on the C-terminus (Total Phosphorylation Deficient (TPD)) were mutated to alanine, were examined in locus coeru...
