Interference with withdrawal signs of naloxone-induced opiate withdrawal under anesthesia is anesthetic-specific in opiate-dependent rats.

چکیده
We hypothesized that interference of opiate antagonist-precipitated withdrawal signs under anesthesia is anesthetic-specific. Three groups of morphine-dependent rats were compared in different experimental conditions using a protocol of rapid withdrawal induction by an antagonist under anesthesia. We observed that ketamine and midazolam have different effects on the expression of withdrawal. This brings specific insights into the pharmacological basis of therapy with induction of opiate antagonist.

The effect of gabapentin on the withdrawal signs in morphine-dependent male rats
Acute morphine withdrawal is considered to be the physical manifestation of dependence, emerging when morphine administration is stopped or after the administration of an opiate antagonist, such as naloxone. Gabapentin, which is an antiepileptic, agent, enhances the analgesic effect of morphine in healthy volunteers, but its effect on morphine dependence and withdrawal signs has not determined ...
متن کاملDorsal and median raphe serotonergic system lesion does not alter the opiate withdrawal syndrome.
Previous pharmacological studies have implicated serotonergic brain systems in opiate withdrawal. To test the hypothesis that serotonin (5-HT) has a critical role in the development of opiate withdrawal, we have employed a near-total brain 5-HT system lesion technique (90% depletion) using 5,7-dihydroxytryptamine combined with induction of opiate dependence by implantation of morphine pellets o...

متن کاملRats that binge eat fat-rich food do not show somatic signs or anxiety associated with opiate-like withdrawal: implications for nutrient-specific food addiction behaviors.
Previous studies suggest that binge eating sugar leads to behavioral and neurochemical changes similar to those seen with drug addiction, including signs of opiate-like withdrawal. Studies are emerging that show multiple neurochemical and behavioral indices of addiction when animals overeat a fat-rich diet. The goal of the present study was to utilize liquid and solid diets high in sugar and fa...
متن کاملA pharmacological modulation of opiate withdrawal using an up-/down-regulation of the noradrenergic system in opiate-dependent rats.
Chronic opioid exposure induces neuroadaptative changes in several brain systems. Amongst others the alpha adrenergic system appears to be extremely sensitive to opioid exposure and has, therefore, been proposed to play a key role in opiate withdrawal symptoms. In order to better understand the influence of the noradrenergic system in opioid withdrawal and be able to develop new therapeutic str...
