Biochem/physiol Actions

Pentazocine is an analgesic with both agonist and antagonist activities. It acts as a κ- and σ-opioid receptor agonist and partial mu-receptor antagonist. Pentazocine pre-treatment reduces the frequency of fentanyl-induced cough and improves the anesthetic effect.

A series of 6,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.2]nonane derivatives bearing two aromatic moieties was prepared, the affinity toward sigma(1) and sigma(2) receptors was investigated, and the growth inhibition of six human tumor cell lines was determined. The enantiopure bicyclic ketones 5a ((+)-(1S,5S)-6-allyl-8-(4-methoxybenzyl)-6,8-diazabicyclo[3.2.2]nonane-2,7,9-trione) and 5b

A series of enantiomeric N-substituted 2,3,4,4a,5,6,7,7a-octahydro-1H-benzofuro[3,2-e]isoquinolines was synthesized. The (-)-enantiomers had much greater kappa-, mu-, and delta-opioid receptor binding affinity than the corresponding (+)-enantiomers. Compounds (-)-1a, (-)-1b, and (-)-1c displayed subnanomolar binding affinity for the mu-receptor, and (-)-1b had a

This study evaluated the effect of pentazocine pretreatment on fentanyl-induced cough. With ethics committee approval, 277 ASA I-II patients, aged between 19 and 63 years, undergoing various elective surgeries during general anesthesia, were enrolled in this prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled

Novel benzo[d]oxazol-2(3H)-one derivatives were designed and synthesized, and their affinities against sigma receptors were evaluated. On the basis of 31 compounds, a three-dimensional pharmacophore model for the sigma(1) receptor binding site was developed using the Catalyst 4.9 software package. The
