Interactions of mu-opioid receptors with the benzodiazepine system were studied by examining the modulatory effects of flumazenil (a benzodiazepine antagonist) and alprazolam (a benzodiazepine agonist) on the respiratory effects of the opioid peptide dermorphin. Dermorphin, 1-30 nmol administered i.c.v., to conscious, unrestrained rats decreased ventilation rate (VR) and minute volume (MV) dose...
Brain opioid systems have been implicated in the regulation of social interaction, including agonistic behaviour. kappa-Opioid receptor B and C mRNA levels were decreased in the ventral tegmental area but not in the nucleus accumbens in male mice with repeated experience of social victories (winners), but not in mice after social defeats (losers) after 10 but not 20 days of confrontations. mu-O...
Our previous studies have demonstrated that morphine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) can be inhibited by 2 Hz electroacupuncture (EA). This inhibition can be blocked by either the opioid receptor antagonist naloxone (i.p.) or lesion in the nucleus accumbens (NAc), providing evidence that endogenous opioid system in the NAc mediates the effects of EA. Here we report that 1) A single s...
Opioids are a mainstay in acute pain management and produce their effects side (e.g., tolerance, opioid-use disorder immune suppression) by interaction with opioid receptors. I will discuss pharmacology some controversial areas of enquiry anaesthetic relevance. The main target is the µ (mu,MOP) receptor but other members family, δ (delta; DOP) κ (kappa; KOP) receptors also analgesic actions. Th...
Patients receiving opioids report feeling sleepy, but opioids actually inhibit the rapid eye movement phase of sleep (REM). Inhibition of REM sleep is followed by a rebound increase in REM sleep associated with cardiopulmonary complications. The medial pontine reticular formation (mPRF) is a brain region from which morphine can inhibit REM sleep. The present study tested the hypothesis that spe...
Four experiments studied the opioid receptor subtype and signal transduction mechanisms mediating fear extinction in the ventrolateral quadrant of the midbrain periaqueductal gray (vlPAG). Microinjection of a mu- but not a delta- or kappa-opioid receptor antagonist into the vlPAG retarded extinction. Extinction was also dose-dependently retarded by vlPAG infusions of a cyclic AMP (cAMP) analog ...
OBJECTIVE Borderline personality disorder is characterized by a lack of effective regulation of emotional responses. The authors investigated the role of the endogenous opioid system and mu-opioid receptors in emotion regulation in borderline personality disorder. METHOD Mu-opioid receptor availability in vivo (nondisplaceable binding potential, or BP(ND)) was measured with positron emission ...
This study examined the cardiovascular, respiratory, and sympathetic effects of selective mu and delta opioid agonists microinjected into the hypothalamic nucleus preopticus medialis (POM) of conscious SHR and WKY rats. The mu receptor agonist D-Ala2-MePhe4-Gly5-ol-enkephalin (DAGO) at a dose of 0.6 or 6.0 nanomoles (Nmol) increased the blood pressure and heart rate in WKY rats. In SHR rats, th...
Opioids increase the firing of dopamine cells in the ventral tegmental area by presynaptic inhibition of GABA release. This report describes an acute presynaptic inhibition of GABAB-mediated IPSPs by mu- and kappa-opioid receptors and the effects of withdrawal from chronic morphine treatment on the release of GABA at this synapse. In slices taken from morphine-treated guinea pigs after washing ...
INTRODUCTION Opioid receptors are currently classified as Mu (μ), Delta (δ), Kappa (κ) plus the opioid related nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ) peptide receptor (NOP). Despite compelling evidence for interactions and benefits of targeting more than one receptor type in producing analgesia, clinical ligands are Mu agonists. In this study we have designed a Mu-NOP agonist named DeNo. The Mu agonist...
