Tyr-D-Arg2-Phe-sarcosine4 (TAPS), a mu-selective tetrapeptide analog of dermorphin, induced sustained antinociception and stimulated ventilatory minute volume (MV) at the doses of 3 to 100 pmol i.c.v. The doses of 30 and 100 pmol i.c.v. induced catalepsy. The effect of TAPS on MV was in negative correlation with the dose and the maximal response was achieved by the lowest (3 pmol) dose (+63 +/- 23%, P < .05). Morphine, an agonist at both mu 1 and mu 2 sites, at a dose of 150 nmol i.c.v. (equianalgesic to 100 pmol of TAPS decreased the MV by 30%, due to a decrease in ventilatory tidal volume. The antinociceptive effect of TAPS was antagonized by naloxone and the mu 1 receptor antagonist, naloxonazine. Naloxonazine also attenuated the catalepsy produced by 100 pmol of TAPS i.c.v. and the respiratory stimulation produced by 3 pmol of TAPS i.c.v. Pretreatment with 30 pmol of TAPS antagonized the respiratory depression induced by the mu opioid agonist dermorphin (changes in MV after dermorphin alone at 1 or 3 nmol were -22 +/- 10% and -60 +/- 9% and, after pretreatment with TAPS, +44 +/- 11% and -18 +/- 5%, respectively). After combined pretreatment with naloxonazine and TAPS, 1 nmol of dermorphin had no significant effect on ventilation. In contrast, pretreatment with a low respiratory stimulant dose (10 pmol i.c.v.) of dermorphin did not modify the effect of 1 nmol of dermorphin. In conclusion, the antinociceptive, cataleptic and respiratory stimulant effects of TAPS appear to be a related to its agonist action at the mu 1 opioid receptors.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The present experiments evaluated the influence of intraventricular mu and delta opioid receptors on affective vocal and reflexive responses to aversive stimuli in socially inexperienced, as well as defensive and submissive responses in defeated, adult male Long-Evans rats. Defeat stress consisted of: (1) an aggressive confrontation in which the experimental intruder rat exhibited escape, defensive and submissive behaviors [i.e., upright, supine postures and ultrasonic vocalizations (USV)], and subsequently, (2) protection from the resident stimulus rat with a wire mesh screen for 10-20 min. Defeat stress was immediately followed by an experimental session with tactile startle (20 psi). The mu opioid receptor agonists morphine (0.1-0.6 microg i.c.v.) and [D-Ala2-N-Me-Phe4-Gly5-ol]-enkephalin (DAMGO; 0.01-0.3 microg i.c.v.), and the delta opioid receptor agonist [D-Pen2,5]-enkephalin (DPDPE; 10-100 microg i.c.v.) dose-dependently decreased startle-induced USV and increased tail-flick latencies in socially inexperienced and defeated rats. Of greater interest, morphine, DAMGO and DPDPE increased the occurrence of the submissive crouch posture, and defeated rats were more sensitive than socially inexperienced rats to the startle-induced USV-suppressive and antinociceptive effects of morphine and DPDPE. The antinociceptive effects of DAMGO were likewise obtained at lower doses in defeated rats. Finally, the USV-suppressive effects of morphine and DAMGO were reversed with the mu receptor antagonist naltrexone (0.1 mg/kg i.p.), but the USV-suppressive effects produced by DPDPE were not reversed with the delta receptor antagonist naltrindole (1 mg/kg i.p.). These results confirm mu, but not delta opioid receptor activation as significant in affective vocal, passive-submissive behavior, as well as reflexive antinociception. Furthermore, similar to previous studies with restraint and electric shock stress, the facilitation of mu opioid effects on vocal responses and antinociception is consistent with the proposal that defeat stress activated endogenous opioid mechanisms. 相似文献

N-Methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists have been shown to block the development of antinociceptive tolerance to morphine. Assessment of the effects of NMDA antagonists on development of antinociceptive tolerance to selective opioid mu (mu) and delta (delta) agonists, however, has not been reported. In these experiments, selective mu and delta receptor agonists, and morphine, were repeatedly administered to mice either supraspinally (i.c.v.) or systemically (s.c.), alone or after pretreatment with systemic NMDA antagonists. Antinociception was evaluated using a warm-water tail-flick test. Repeated i.c.v. injections of mu agonists including morphine, fentanyl, [D-Ala2, NMePhe4, Gly-ol]enkephalin (DAMGO) and Tyr-Pro-NMePhe-D-Pro-NH2 (PL017) or [D-Ala2, Glu4]deltorphin, a delta agonist, or s.c. injections of morphine or fentanyl, produced antinociceptive tolerance as shown by a significant rightward displacement of the agonist dose-response curves compared to controls. Single injections or repeated administration of MK801 (a non-competitive NMDA antagonist) or LY235959 (a competitive NMDA antagonist) at the doses employed in this study did not produce behavioral toxicity, antinociception or alter the acute antinociceptive effects of the tested opioid agonists. Consistent with previous reports, pretreatment with MK801 or LY235959 (30 min prior to agonist administration throughout the tolerance regimen) prevented the development of antinociceptive tolerance to i.c.v. or s.c. morphine. Neither NMDA antagonist, however, affected the development of antinociceptive tolerance to i.c.v. fentanyl, DAMGO, or [D-Ala2, Glu4]deltorphin. Additionally, MK801 pretreatment did not affect the development of antinociceptive tolerance to i.c.v. PL017 or to s.c. fentanyl. Further, MK801 pretreatment also did not affect the development of tolerance to the antinociception resulting from a cold-water swim-stress episode, previously shown to be a delta-opioid mediated effect. These data lead to the suggestion that the mechanisms of tolerance to receptor selective mu and delta opioids may be regulated differently from those associated with morphine. Additionally, these findings emphasize that conclusions reached with studies employing morphine cannot always be extended to 'opiates' in general. 相似文献

1. In order to improve the in vivo stability of the opioid peptide dermorphin we synthesized O-betaglucosylated analogs ([Ser7-O-betaGlc]dermorphin and [Ser7-O-betaGlc(Ac)4]-dermorphin) and C-alphagalactosylated analogs ([Ala7-C-alphaGal]dermorphin and [Ala7-C-alphaGal(Ac)4]-dermorphin). 2. O- and C-glycosylation of dermorphin halved the peptide affinity for brain mu-opioid receptors and the biological potency in guinea-pig ileum assay (GPI). Despite their lower opioid receptor affinity, when administered intracerebroventricularly (i.c.v., 8-40 pmol) and subcutaneously (s.c., 0.5-3 micromol kg(-1)) in rats, glycosylated analogs were two times more potent than dermorphin in reducing the nociceptive response to radiant heat. Acetylation of sugar hydroxyl groups reduces 5-10 times both biological activity on GPI and mu-receptor affinity, whereas the antinociceptive potency was equal to (i.c.v.) or only two-three times lower (s.c.) than dermorphin potency. 3. Blood-Brain Barrier Permeability Index (BBB-PI) of the glycodermorphins was significantly higher than that of dermorphin, indicating a facilitated entry into the brain: O-beta-linked glucoconiugates are expected to enter CNS by the glucose transporter GLUT-1 of the endothelial barrier. However the calculated BBB-PI for the C-alphagalactoside was about two times higher than that of the O-betaglucoside, excluding the implication of GLUT-1 that is known to be selective for O-beta-links and preferring for the exose glucose. 4. The enhanced brain permeability with the subsequent decrease in peripheral dosage of these opioid peptides did not result in lowering constipation. 相似文献

CD-1 mice were treated intravenously with streptozotocin, 200 mg/kg, and tested 2 weeks later or treated with 60 mg/kg and tested 3 days later. Both treatments changed the tail flick response of heroin and 6-monoacetylmorphine (6 MAM) given intracerebroventricularly from a mu- to delta-opioid receptor-mediated action as determined by differential effects of opioid receptor antagonists. The response to morphine remained mu. Heroin and 6 MAM responses involved delta1 (inhibited by 7-benzylidenenaltrexone) and delta2 (inhibited by naltriben) receptors, respectively. These delta-agonist actions did not synergize with the mu-agonist action of morphine in the diabetic mice. The expected synergism between the delta agonist, [D-Pen2-D-Pen5]enkephalin (DPDPE), and morphine was not obtained in diabetic mice. Thus, diabetes disrupted the purported mu/delta-coupled response. In nondiabetic CD-1 mice, heroin and 6 MAM produced a different mu-receptor response (not inhibited by naloxonazine) from that of morphine (inhibited by naloxonazine). Also, these mu actions, unlike that of morphine, did not synergize with DPDPE. The unique receptor actions and changes produced by streptozotocin suggest that extrinsic in addition to genetic factors influence the opioid receptor selectivity of heroin and 6 MAM. 相似文献

We examined the effects of calcium modulators on mu and delta opioid receptor agonist-induced antinociception in both diabetic and nondiabetic mice. In nondiabetic mice, intracerebroventricular (i.c. v.) pretreatment with calcium and thapsigargin, which increase intracellular calcium, reduced [D-Ala2,N-MePhe4,Gly-ol5]-enkephalin (DAMGO)-induced antinociception by shifting its dose-response curve to the right. However, in diabetic mice i.c.v. pretreatment with calcium and thapsigargin did not affect DAMGO-induced antinociception. In contrast i.c.v. administration of agents that decrease intracellular calcium, such as EGTA and ryanodine, enhanced DAMGO-induced antinociception in both diabetic and nondiabetic mice. In contrast with DAMGO i.c.v. pretreatment with calcium and thapsigargin enhanced (-)-TAN67-induced antinociception in nondiabetic mice by shifting its dose-response curve to the left. However, (-)-TAN67-induced antinociception in diabetic mice was not affected by pretreatment with calcium or thapsigargin. Moreover i.c. v. pretreatment with EGTA, but not with ryanodine, reduced (-)-TAN67-induced antinociception in nondiabetic mice. In diabetic mice i.c.v. pretreatment with both EGTA and ryanodine reduced (-)-TAN67-induced antinociception. These results suggest that cytosolic calcium has different effects on mu and delta opioid receptor agonist-induced antinociception. Further, these results suggest that the modification of mu and delta opioid receptor agonist-induced antinociception by diabetes in mice may be due to increased levels of intracellular calcium. 相似文献

For 5 consecutive days repeated intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) administration of antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) to G alpha subunit mRNAs was used to impair the function of mouse Gi1, Gi2, Gi3 and Gx/z regulatory proteins. Decreases of 20 to 60% on the G alpha-like immunoreactivity could be observed in neural structures of mouse brain, an effect that was not produced by a random-sequence ODN used as a control. The ODN to Gi1 alpha subunits lacked effect on opioid-evoked analgesia. In mice injected with the ODN to Gi2 alpha subunits the antinociceptive activity of all the opioids studied appeared greatly impaired. The ODN to Gi3 alpha subunits reduced the effects of the selective agonists of delta opioid receptors, [D-Pen2,5]-enkephalin and [D-Ala2]deltorphin II. Conversely, the analgesia evoked by opioids binding mu opioid receptors, [D-Ala2, N-MePhe4,Gly-ol5]enkephalin and morphine, appeared consistently and significantly attenuated in mice injected with the ODN to Gx/z alpha. The effect of the neuropeptide beta-endorphine-(1-31) agonist at mu and delta receptors was also reduced by ODNs to Gi3 alpha or Gx/z alpha subunits. l.c.v. injection of antibodies directed to these G alpha subunits antagonized opioid-induced analgesia with a pattern similar to that observed for the ODNs. Thus, the mu and delta opiod receptors regulate different classes of G transducer proteins to mediate the analgesic effect of agonists. The in vivo antisense strategy and the use of specific antibodies to G alpha subunits gave comparable results, indicating that in the neural tissue the mRNAs and the G alpha subunits can be accessed by the corresponding ODNs and IgGs. 相似文献

Evidence in vivo has suggested the existence of subtypes of the delta opioid receptor (DOR), which have been termed delta 1 and delta 2. These proposed DOR subtypes are thought to be activated by [D-Pen2, D-Pen5]enkephalin (DPDPE, delta 1) and [D-Ala2, Glu4]deltorphin (delta 2). Recent work in which an antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (oligo) to a cloned DOR was administered by the intrathecal (i.th.) route has demonstrated a reduction in the antinociceptive actions of both i.th. DPDPE and [D-Ala2, Glu4]deltorphin, but not of [D-Ala2, NMPhe4, Gly-ol]enkephalin (DAMGO, mu agonist) in mice. The present investigation has extended these observations by administering the same DOR antisense oligo sequence by the intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) route and evaluating the antinociceptive actions of i.c.v. agonists selective for delta, mu and kappa receptors. I.th. treatment with DOR antisense oligo, but not mismatch oligo, significantly inhibited the antinociceptive actions of both i.th. DPDPE and [D-Ala2, Glu4]deltorphin but not of i.th. DAMGO or U69,593 (kappa agonist), confirming previous data. In contrast, i.c.v. DOR antisense oligo, but not mismatch oligo, selectively inhibited the antinociceptive response to i.c.v. [D-Ala2, Glu4]deltorphin without altering the antinociceptive actions of i.c.v. DPDPE, DAMGO or U69,593. The data suggest that the cloned DOR corresponds to that pharmacologically classified as delta 2 and further, suggest that this delta receptor subtype may play a major role in eliciting spinal delta-mediated antinociception. 相似文献

Heroin administered i.c.v. acts on supraspinal mu opioid receptors in ICR mice but on delta receptors in Swiss Webster mice. The purpose of this study was to determine the degree to which genotype plays a role in the opioid receptor selectivity of heroin across a range of fully inbred strains of mice. Six inbred strains were given heroin i.c.v. 10 min before the tail-flick test. Differences in the descending neurotransmitter systems involved in supraspinal opioid-induced analgesia were evaluated as the first step. Antagonism by bicuculline given intrathecally indicated the involvement of supraspinal delta receptors in activating spinal gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors; antagonism by intrathecal methysergide indicated either mu or kappa receptor involvement. Antagonism by intrathecal yohimbine implicated mu and eliminated kappa receptor involvement. Intracerbroventricular opioid antagonists (beta-funaltrexamine, 7-benzylidenenaltrexone, naltriben, or nor-binaltorphimine) provided further differentiation. Based on these initial results, receptor selectivity was determined by more extensive ED50 experiments with i.c.v. administration of heroin with opioid antagonists, beta-funaltrexamine (for mu), naltrindole (for delta), and nor-binaltorphimine (for kappa). The combined results indicated that heroin analgesia was predominantly mediated in C57BL/6J by delta, in DBA/2J and CBA/J by mu, and in BALB/cByJ and AKR/J by kappa receptors. The response in C3H/HeJ appeared to involve mu receptors. The results indicate that the opioid receptor selectivity of heroin is genotype-dependent. Because these genotypes are fully inbred, the genetically determined molecular and neurochemical substrate mediating the different opioid receptor selectivities of heroin can be studied further. 相似文献

Calcitonin (CT) secretion is not exclusively under the control of calcium levels in the plasma, but also depends on the sympathetic-adrenergic tone. In previous experiments we stressed out the possible role played by 5-leu enkephalin (5-LE) in the nervous regulation of the CT secretion. Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) 5-LE in doses of 100 micrograms could act at a central level through a mechanism independent from the noradrenergic pathways, since i.c.v. 6-OHDA and propranolol could not interfere with its stimulatory effect on the CT content of the thyroid. In the present experiments, performed in anaesthetized Wistar-Bratislava rats, we studied the involvement of mu and delta receptors in the central effect of 5-LE on the CT content of the thyroids and the CT levels in the plasma. These parameters were measured in parallel, by means of a competitive radioimmunoassay with double antibodies (Peninsula Lab.). 5-LE probably bound to both mu and delta receptors, since its effect on the CT secretion was reversed by 13 micrograms of naloxone (i.c.v.). A partial blockade, comparable to naloxone, was noticed after 382 micrograms of CTOP (i.c.v.), a specific antagonist of the mu receptors--stressing out their involvement in the stimulatory effect of 5-LE on the CT secretion. 250 Ug of ICI 174864 (i.c.v.), a selective antagonist the the delta receptors completely blocked the stimulation induced by 5-LE on the CT secretion to values significantly lower as compared to the controls and even to the sympathectomized group. This suggests the tonic role played by enkephalins in the CT secretion, through the central activation of delta receptors.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

To characterize how systemic morphine induces Fos protein in dorsomedial striatum and nucleus accumbens (NAc), we examined the role of receptors in striatum, substantia nigra (SN), and ventral tegmental area (VTA). Morphine injected into medial SN or into VTA of awake rats induced Fos in neurons in ipsilateral dorsomedial striatum and NAc. Morphine injected into lateral SN induced Fos in dorsolateral striatum and globus pallidus. The morphine infusions produced contralateral turning that was most prominent after lateral SN injections. Intranigral injections of [D-Ala2, N-Me-Phe4, Gly-ol5]-enkephalin (DAMGO), a mu opioid receptor agonist, and of bicuculline, a GABAA receptor antagonist, induced Fos in ipsilateral striatum. Fos induction in dorsomedial striatum produced by systemic administration of morphine was blocked by (1) SN and VTA injections of the mu1 opioid antagonist naloxonazine and (2) striatal injections of either MK 801, an NMDA glutamate receptor antagonist, or SCH 23390, a D1 dopamine receptor antagonist. Fos induction in dorsomedial striatum and NAc after systemic administration of morphine seems to be mediated by dopamine neurons in medial SN and VTA that project to medial striatum and NAc, respectively. Systemic morphine is proposed to act on mu opioid receptors located on GABAergic interneurons in medial SN and VTA. Inhibition of these GABA interneurons disinhibits medial SN and VTA dopamine neurons, producing dopamine release in medial striatum and NAc. This activates D1 dopamine receptors and coupled with the coactivation of NMDA receptors possibly from cortical glutamate input induces Fos in striatal and NAc neurons. The modulation of target gene expression by Fos could influence addictive behavioral responses to opiates. 相似文献

Previous studies have shown that mu (mu) and kappa (kappa) opioid antagonists inhibit suckling-induced prolactin release. Prolactin responses elicited by pup suckling or opioid administration are mediated, at least in part, by suppression of dopamine (DA) release from tuberoinfundibular dopaminergic (TIDA) neurons in the hypothalamus. We examined the effects of the mu opiate receptor antagonist, beta-funaltrexamine (beta-FNA), and the kappa opiate receptor antagonist, nor-binaltorphimine (nor-BNI) on the activity of TIDA neurons in lactating rats. TIDA neuronal activity was determined by measuring DOPA accumulation in the caudate putamen (CP) and median eminence (ME). The effects of opioid antagonist treatment were determined in pup-deprived (low circulating prolactin levels) or pup-suckled rats (high circulating prolactin levels). The accumulation of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) in the medial preoptic area (MPOA), the anterior hypothalamus (AH) and the median eminence (ME) was quantified as an index of serotonergic activity in the same animals for comparative purposes. In vehicle treated rats, suckling caused a significant and selective decrease in DOPA accumulation in the ME. beta-FNA (5 micrograms, i.c.v.) pretreatment significantly increased DOPA accumulation in the ME of pup-deprived and pup-suckled rats. beta-FNA pretreatment also prevented the suckling-induced suppression of DOPA accumulation in the ME. In contrast to the actions of beta-FNA, pretreatment with nor-BNI (8 micrograms, i.c.v.) did not significantly affect the activity of the TIDA neurons in pup-deprived or pup-suckled rats. Suckling alone did not alter 5-HTP accumulation in any of the brain regions examined, and neither opioid antagonist had appreciable effects on 5-HTP accumulation. These results demonstrate that the EOP tonically inhibit the TIDA neurons in both pup-deprived and pup-suckled, post-partum female rats by acting through the mu, but not the kappa, opiate receptor subtype. Furthermore, the suckling-induced inhibition of TIDA neurons is also mediated through the EOP acting at mu, but not kappa opioid receptors. 相似文献

The recently isolated peptides endomorphin-1 and endomorphin-2 have been suggested to be the endogenous ligands for the mu receptor. In traditional opioid receptor binding assays in mouse brain homogenates, both endomorphin-1 and endomorphin-2 competed both mu1 and mu2 receptor sites quite potently. Neither compound had appreciable affinity for either delta or kappa1 receptors, confirming an earlier report. However, the two endomorphins displayed reasonable affinities for kappa3 binding sites, with Ki values between 20 and 30 nM. Both endomorphins competed 3H-[D-Ala2, MePhe4,Gly(ol)5] enkephalin binding to MOR-1 receptors expressed in CHO cells with high affinity. In mouse brain homogenates 125I-endomorphin-1 and 125I-endomorphin-2 binding was selectively competed by mu ligands. 125I-Endomorphin-1 and 125I-endomorphin-2 also labeled MOR-1 receptors expressed in CHO cells with high affinity. Autoradiography of the two 125I-labeled endomorphins demonstrated regional patterns in the brain similar to those previously observed for mu drugs. Pharmacologically, the endomorphins were potent analgesics. Although they were equipotent supraspinally, endomorphin-1 was more potent spinally. Endomorphin analgesia was effectively blocked by naloxone, as well as the mu-selective antagonists beta-funaltrexamine and naloxonazine. In CXBK mice, which are insensitive to supraspinal morphine, neither endomorphin was active, consistent with a mu mechanism of action. Finally, the endomorphins inhibited gastrointestinal transit. In conclusion, these results support the mu selectivity of these agents. 相似文献

Previous results using an amphibian model showed that systemic and spinal administration of opioids selective for mu, delta and kappa-opioid receptors produce analgesia. It is not known whether non-mammalian vertebrates also contain supraspinal sites mediating opioid analgesia. Thus, opioid agonists selective for mu (morphine; fentanyl), delta (DADLE, [D-Ala2, D-Leu5]-enkephalin; DPDPE, [D-Pen2, D-Pen5]-enkephalin) and kappa (U50488, trans-3,4-dichloro-N-methyl-N-[2-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-cyclohexyl] benzeneacetamide methanesulfonate; CI977, (5R)-(544alpha,744alpha,845beta)-N-methyl-N-[7-(1-p yrr olidinyl)-1-oxaspiro[4,5]dec-8yl]-4-benzofuranaceta mide++ + monohydrochloride) opioid receptors were tested for analgesia following i.c.v. administration in the Northern grass frog, Rana pipiens. Morphine, administered at 0.3, 1, 3 and 10 nmol/frog, produced a dose-dependent and long-lasting analgesic effect. Concurrent naltrexone (10 nmol) significantly blocked analgesia produced by i.c.v. morphine (10 nmol). ED50 values for the six opioids ranged from 2.0 for morphine to 63.9 nmol for U50488. The rank order of analgesic potency was morphine > DADLE > DPDPE > CI977 > fentanyl > U50488. These results show that supraspinal sites mediate opioid analgesia in amphibians and suggest that mechanisms of supraspinal opioid analgesia may be common to all vertebrates. 相似文献

The antinociceptive potency of dihydroetorphine in diabetic mice was examined. Subcutaneous administration of dihydroetorphine produced a dose-dependent antinociception in both non-diabetic and diabetic mice. The antinociceptive potency of s.c. dihydroetorphine was less in diabetic mice than in non-diabetic mice. The antinociception induced by i.c.v. dihydroetorphine (0.02 microgram) was also significantly less in diabetic mice than in non-diabetic mice. The antinociceptive effects of dihydroetorphine (10 micrograms/kg i.p.) in both diabetic and non-diabetic mice were significantly antagonized by s.c. administration of beta-funaltrexamine, a selective mu-opioid receptor antagonist. Furthermore, the antinociceptive effect of dihydroetorphine (10 micrograms/kg i.p.) in non-diabetic mice, but not in diabetic mice, was also significantly antagonized by naloxonazine, a selective mu 1-opioid receptor antagonist. The time course and the potency of the antinociceptive effect of dihydroetorphine (10 micrograms/kg i.p.) in diabetic mice were similar to those in naloxonazine-treated non-diabetic mice. Naltrindole, a selective delta-opioid receptor antagonist, or nor-binaltorphimine, a selective kappa-opioid receptor antagonist, had no significant effect on the antinociceptive effect of dihydroetorphine (10 micrograms/kg i.p.) in both diabetic and non-diabetic mice. These results suggest that dihydroetorphine produces an antinociceptive effect through the activation of both mu 1- and mu 2-opioid receptors in mice. Furthermore, the reduction in dihydroetorphine-induced antinociception in diabetic mice, as compared with non-diabetic mice, may be due to the hyporesponsive to supraspinal mu 1-opioid receptor-mediated antinociception in diabetic mice. 相似文献

Using approaches emphasizing differential antagonism of receptor selective agonists and cross-tolerance paradigms, evidence in vivo has suggested the existence of subtypes of opioid delta receptors, which have been termed delta 1 and delta 2. Recent work has elucidated the structure of an opioid delta receptor. The present investigation attempted to continue to test the hypothesis of subtypes of delta receptors and to correlate the cloned delta receptor with the existing pharmacological classification. Synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides (oligos) complementary to the 5' end of the cloned delta receptor coding region (antisense) or its corresponding sequence (sense) were given by intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) administration to mice, twice-daily for 3 days and antinociceptive responses to selective agonists at putative delta 1 and delta 2 receptors were subsequently determined. Treatment with antisense, but not sense, oligo significantly inhibited the response to [D-Ala2,Glu4]deltorphin (delta 2 agonist), but not to [D-Pen2,D-Pen5]enkephalin (DPDPE, delta 1 agonist). Further, subsequent administration of DPDPE elicited a full antinociceptive response in the same antisense oligo treated mice which did not show a significant response to [D-Ala2,Glu4]deltorphin while antisense oligo treated mice which responded to DPDPE did not show antinociception when tested subsequently with [D-Ala2,Glu4]deltorphin. The data suggest that the cloned delta receptor corresponds to that pharmacologically classified as delta 2 and continue to support the concept of subtypes of opioid delta receptors. 相似文献

The aim of this study is to analyze further the opioid receptor subtypes involved in the augmentation of behavioral activity after dopamine depletion in the nucleus accumbens of rats. Initially, the opioid receptors involved in the augmentation of locomotion produced by endogenous opioids were evaluated by microinjection of kelatorphan, an inhibitor of proteolytic enzymes that inactivates enkephalin, with or without specific antagonists for mu 1 or delta-opioid receptors, naloxonazine or naltrindole, respectively. Kelatorphan produced a dose-dependent increase in horizontal photocell counts and vertical movements. At all doses examined the behavioral response was augmented in rats sustaining accumbal dopamine lesions. The augmentation in dopamine-depleted rats was partially blocked by naloxonazine or naltrindole. Since the motor stimulant response to intra-accumbens microinjection of the delta-opioid agonist, [D-penicillamine2,5]-enkephalin, was not augmented in a previous study, we tested the behavioral response to a new endogenous delta-opioid agonist, [D-Ala2] deltorphin I. The locomotor response to deltorphin was slightly augmented in dopamine-depleted rats. These data suggest that the augmentation in the motor response elicited by endogenous opioids after dopamine lesions in the nucleus accumbens involves both mu 1, and delta-opioid receptors. 相似文献

1. The antinociceptive action of clonidine (Clon) and the interactions with alpha 1, alpha 2 adrenoceptor and opioid receptor antagonists was evaluated in mice by use of chemical algesiometric test (acetic acid writhing test). 2. Clon produced a dose-dependent antinociceptive action and the ED50 for intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) was lower than for intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration (1 ng kg-1 vs 300 ng kg-1). The parallelism of the dose-response curves indicates activation of a common receptor subtype. 3. Systemic administration of prazosin and terazosin displayed antinociceptive activity. Pretreatment with prazosin produced a dual action: i.c.v. Clon effect did not change, and i.p. Clon effect was enhanced. Yohimbine i.c.v. or i.p. did not induce antinonciception, but antagonized Clon-induced activity. These results suggest that alpha 1- and alpha 2-adrenoceptors, either located at the pre- and/or post-synaptic level, are involved in the control of spinal antinociception. 4. Naloxone (NX) and naltrexone (NTX) induced antinociceptive effects at low doses (microgram kg-1 range) and a lower antinociceptive effect at higher doses (mg kg-1 range). Low doses of NX or NTX antagonized Clon antinociception, possibly in relation to a preferential mu opioid receptor antagonism. In contrast, high doses of NX or NTX increased the antinociceptive activity of Clon, which could be due to an enhanced inhibition of the release of substance P. 5. The results obtained in the present work suggest the involvement of alpha 1-, alpha 2-adrenoceptor and opioid receptors in the modulation of the antinociceptive activity of clonidine, which seems to be exerted either at spinal and/or supraspinal level. 相似文献

Opioid receptor subtype antagonists differentially alter food intake under deprivation (24 h), glucoprivic (2-deoxy-D-glucose, 500 mg/kg, i.p.) or palatable (10% sucrose) conditions with mu (beta-funaltrexamine) and kappa (nor-binaltorphamine), but not delta1 ([D-Ala2,Leu5,Cys6]enkephalin) opioid antagonists reducing each form of intake following ventricular microinjection. Both mu and kappa opioid antagonists microinjected into either the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus or the nucleus accumbens reduce intake under deprivation and glucoprivic conditions. Palatable intake is reduced by both antagonists in the paraventricular nucleus, but only mu antagonists are active in the accumbens. Food intake is stimulated by mu and delta, but not kappa, opioid agonists microinjected into the ventral tegmental area. The present study examined whether food intake under either deprivation, glucoprivic or palatable conditions was altered by bilateral administration of general (naltrexone), mu, kappa, delta1 or delta2 (naltrindole isothiocyanate) opioid antagonists into the ventral tegmental area. Deprivation (24 h)-induced feeding was significantly reduced by high (50 microg), but not lower (10-20 microg) doses of naltrexone (21%), and by delta2 (4 microg, 19%) antagonism in the ventral tegmental area. 2-Deoxy-D-glucose (500 mg/kg, i.p.)-induced hyperphagia was significantly reduced by high (50 microg), but not lower (20 microg) doses of naltrexone (64%), and by delta2 (4 microg, 27%) antagonism in the ventral tegmental area. Sucrose (10%) intake was significantly reduced by naltrexone (20-50 microg, 25-39%) and delta2 (4 microg, 25%) antagonism in the ventral tegmental area. Neither mu, kappa nor delta1 antagonists were effective in reducing any form of intake following microinjection into the ventral tegmental area. These data indicate that the ventral tegmental area plays a relatively minor role in the elicitation of these forms of food intake, and that delta2, rather than mu, kappa or delta1 opioid receptors appear responsible for mediation of these forms of intake by this nucleus. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The authors examined the interaction of ketamine with recombinant mu, kappa, and delta opioid receptors and recombinant orphan opioid receptors expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-mu, CHO-kappa, CHO-delta, and CHO(ORL1), respectively). METHODS: CHO-mu, CHO-kappa, and CHO-delta membranes were incubated with the opioid receptor radioligand [3H]diprenorphine at room temperature. Ketamine (racemic, R(-) and S(+)) was included at concentrations covering the clinical range. CHO(ORL1) membranes were incubated with [125I]Tyr(14)nociceptin and racemic ketamine at room temperature. The effects of racemic ketamine and selective opioid receptor agonists (mu: [D-Ala2, MePhe4, Gly(ol)5] enkephalin (DAMGO); kappa: spiradoline or delta: [D-pen2, D-pen5] enkephalin (DPDPE)) on forskolin-stimulated cyclic adenosine monophosphate formation also were examined. Data are mean +/- SEM. RESULTS: Racemic ketamine increased the radioligand equilibrium dissociation constant for [3H]diprenorphine from 85+/-5 to 273+/-11, 91+/-6 to 154+/-16, and 372+/-15 to 855+/-42 pM in CHO-mu, CHO-kappa, and CHO-delta, respectively. The concentration of radioligand bound at saturation was unaffected. In CHO-mu and CHO-kappa cells, racemic ketamine did not slow the rate of naloxone-induced [3H]diprenorphine dissociation. Ketamine and its isomers also displaced [3H]diprenorphine binding to mu, kappa, and delta receptors in a dose-dependent manner, with pKi values for racemic ketamine of 4.38+/-0.02, 4.55+/-0.04, and 3.57+/-0.02, respectively. S(+)-ketamine was two to three times more potent than R(-)-ketamine at mu and kappa receptors. Racemic ketamine displaced [125I]Tyr(14)nociceptin with an estimated affinity constant of 0.5 mM. Racemic ketamine inhibited the formation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (naloxone insensitive) in a dose-dependent manner (concentration producing 50% inhibition approximately 2 mM) in all cell lines, including untransfected CHO cells. Ketamine (100 microM) reversed DAMGO (mu) and spiradoline (kappa) inhibition of formation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate. CONCLUSIONS: Ketamine interacts stereoselectively with recombinant mu and kappa opioid receptors. 相似文献
