ICI 204448, a selective kappa-opioid agonist with limited CNS access, can be used to discriminate central and peripheral opioid actions on physiological systems such as pain and thermoregulation. Therefore, we investigated the effect of ICI 204448 (2.5, 5, and 10

The antiarrhythmic activities of 16-methylcyprenorphine (M8008), nor-binaltorphimine (NBT) and naltrexone, which are relatively specific opioid receptor antagonists for delta, kappa and mu receptors, respectively, were examined during the 30 min following coronary artery occlusion in anaesthetised rats. The haemodynamic and
The dynorphins are endogenous opioid peptides with relative binding selectivity for kappa-receptors. It is unclear whether the dynorphins share the pharmacological profile observed with synthetic kappa-agonists in primates. The main objective of this study was to compare the effects of

The antinociceptive effect of intraplantar (i.pl.) ICI 204448 ((R,S)-N-[2-(N-methyl-3,4-dichloro-phenylacetamido)-2-(3-carbox yph enyl)- ethyl]pyrrolidine hydrochloride)) (20, 30, 40 and 50 micrograms), a kappa-opioid receptor agonist which has limited access to the central nervous system, was studied in a well-established rat model of
This study describes the coupling of the recombinant rat kappa-opioid receptor expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells to adenylyl cyclase and the effects of receptor density. The binding of [3H]diprenorphine ([3H]DPN) was dose dependent and saturable in membranes prepared
