Drug metabolism and disposition: the biological fate of chemicals, 25(6), 768-771 (1997-06-01)
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability to morphine and morphine-6-glucuronide (M6G) is measured under identical conditions using an intravenous injection method in the rat and HPLC separation of morphine from its metabolites. The brain uptake of M6G expressed as %ID/g was
The present study examined whether morphine and morphine-6beta-glucuronide (M6G) analgesia on the tail-flick and jump tests differed in potency in the periaqueductal gray, the locus coeruleus or the rostral ventromedial medulla. Morphine and M6G significantly and dose-dependently elicited analgesia on
The Journal of pharmacology and experimental therapeutics, 262(1), 25-31 (1992-07-01)
The antinociceptive properties of morphine-6 beta-glucuronide (M6G) and morphine (oral, i.c.v. and s.c.) were examined in two tests involving different nociceptive stimuli [i.e., cutaneous-thermal (tail-flick) and chemical-visceral (acetic acid-writhing)] in both naive and chronically treated mice. Twenty min after i.c.v.

We investigated the nature of interaction of morphine-3-O-beta-D-glucuronide (M3G) and morphine-6-O-beta-D-glucuronide (M6G) with opioid binding sites at the mu-, delta- and kappa-opioid receptors (mu-OR, delta-OR and kappa-OR) in cerebral membranes. Saturation binding experiments revealed a competitive interaction of M6G with
Anaesthesia and intensive care, 40(5), 867-870 (2012-09-01)
A morphine plasma concentration/respiratory rate relationship has been described for both adults and children although that of its metabolite, morphine-6-glucuronide, remains uncertain. We describe this relationship in a child with end-stage renal failure who received repeat morphine administration over two
