Previously, we showed that kappa-selective ligands inhibit adenylyl cyclase in guinea pig cerebellar membranes. The present studies explore the relationship between kappa 1 binding sites (as determined with [3H]U-69,593 binding) and kappa 1-inhibition of adenylyl cyclase (using U-50,488H) in guinea

The profiles of action of beta-funaltrexamine (beta-FNA) and beta-chlornaltrexamine (beta-CNA) have been assessed in the mouse vas deferens preparation. beta-FNA, but not beta-CNA, demonstrated a reversible agonist action that appeared to be mediated via kappa-receptor interaction. beta-CNA produced an irreversible

The effects of acute exposure of the opioid peptide [D-Ala2,N-MePhe4, Gly-ol5]enkephalin (DAMGO) on the mu-opioid receptor were examined in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) K-1 and baby hamster kidney stable transfectants. In the CHO cell line, acute 1-hr treatment with DAMGO

Opioids activate the descending antinociceptive pathway from the ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (vlPAG) by both pre- and postsynaptic inhibition of tonically active GABAergic neurons (i.e., disinhibition). Previous research has shown that short-term desensitization of postsynaptic μ-opioid receptors (MOPrs) in the vlPAG

Previous studies have shown that nitrous oxide (N(2)O)-induced antinociception is sensitive to antagonism by blockade of opioid receptors and also by inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) production. The present study was conducted to determine whether these occur within the same
