Chronic treatment with opioid receptor ligands: nonselective peptide opioid receptor agonist dalargin (intraperitoneally in a dose of 1 mg/kg), selective nonpeptide kappa-receptor agonist GR 89696 (subcutaneously in a dose of 0.03 mg/kg), nonselectrive nonpeptide antagonist quadazocine (subcutaneously in a dose

It has been demonstrated that kappa-2 opioid receptor agonists can inhibit the current that flows through the N-methyl-o-aspartate (NMDA) subclass of excitatory amino acid receptor. NMDA receptor antagonists have been shown to be effective antihyperalgesic agents when administered intrathecally into

The nonselective kappa opioid receptor agonist ethylketocyclazocine suppresses external urethral sphincter (EUS) reflexes in cats. We examined the role of spinal kappa-opioid receptor subtypes in the control of EUS function in rats using selective kappa-1 (U-50,488) or kappa-2 (GR-89,696) opiate
Anesthesia and analgesia, 113(4), 934-940 (2011-07-27)
Although bone cancer-related pain is one of the most disruptive symptoms in patients with advanced cancer, patients are often refractory to pharmacological treatments; thus, more effective treatments for bone cancer pain are needed. We evaluated the analgesic efficacy of and

Brain kappa-opioid receptors (ORs) may be involved in several pathologic conditions, such as addiction, psychosis, and seizures. (+/-)-4-Methoxycarbonyl-2-[(1-pyrrolidinylmethyl]-1-[(3,4-dichlorophenyl)acetyl]-piperidine (GR89696) is a potent and selective kappa-OR agonist. The (-)-isomer, GR103545, is the active enantiomer of GR89696. The aim of this study
