Interactions of peripheral and central μ opioid systems during emotional stress
Background Numerous studies support an important contribution of endogenous opioid peptide systems in the mechanisms of emotional behavior. It is well known that the structure of opioid receptors (OR) and endogenous opioid peptides in the CNS and in the periphery is identical, but the central and peripheral functions of endogenous opioid systems are considered different, because the blood-brain...
متن کاملInvestigating endogenous µ-opioid receptors in human keratinocytes as pharmacological targets using novel fluorescent ligand
Opioids in skin function during stress response, regeneration, ageing and, particularly in regulating sensation. In chronic pruritus, topical treatment with Naltrexone changes μ-opioid receptor (μ-OR) localization to relieve itch. The molecular mechanisms behind the effects of Naltrexone on μ-OR function in reduction of itching behavior has not been studied. There is an immediate need to unders...
متن کاملAn Experimental Study on Spinal Cord µ-Opioid and α2-Adrenergic Receptors mRNA Expression Following Stress-Induced Hyperalgesia in Male Rats
Background: Intense stress can change pain perception and induce hyperalgesia; a phenomenon called stress-induced hyperalgesia (SIH). However, the neurobiological mechanism of this effect remains unclear. The present study aimed to investigate the effect of the spinal cord µ-opioid receptors (MOR) and α2-adrenergic receptors (α2-AR) on pain sensation in rats with SIH. Methods: Eighteen Sprague-...
متن کاملInteraction of NMDA and opioid receptors on thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia in two models of neuropathic pain
The use of multiple loose ligations of the rat sciatic nerve has been proposed as a model for the study of allodynia and hyperalgesia. This pain hypersensitivity results from both an increase in the peripheral and central sensitization. The evidence indicating that the development of neuropathic thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia requires activation of spinal cord NMDA receptors. NMD...
