Docking Studies of Kappa Opioid Receptor Agonists
The purpose of the study was to compare the binding energy of pharmacophores of different classes targeting to kappa opioid receptor (KOR) with ketazocine and pentazocine which are having good activity on the KOR. The 3D structure of KOR receptor was built by Homology modeling; pharmacophores were characterized by using Ligand scout. Docking studies for the KOR agonists were performed in Autodo...
متن کاملGR89,696 is a kappa-2 opioid receptor agonist and a kappa-1 opioid receptor antagonist in the guinea pig hippocampus.
Receptor binding studies and electrophysiological studies demonstrated the existence of at least two kappa opioid receptors, which have been designated kappa-1 and kappa-2. Several agonists and antagonists are selective for the kappa-1 receptor whereas no known ligands are selective for the kappa-2 receptor. In this study, the kappa opioid GR89,696 was tested in the guinea pig hippocampal slice...
متن کاملKappa-opioid receptor modulation of nicotine-induced behaviour.
The ability of kappa-opioid receptor ligands to modulate dependence-related behavioural effects of drugs like morphine and cocaine is well documented. The present study examined the effects of kappa-opioid agonists on nicotine-induced locomotor stimulation in rats chronically pre-exposed to nicotine (0.4 mg/kg/day). U50,488 [0.5-3 mg/kg subcutaneously (s.c.)], U69,593 [0.08-0.32 mg/kg intraperi...
متن کاملRegulation of mouse kappa opioid receptor gene expression by retinoids.
The effect of retinoids on the expression of kappa opioid receptor (KOR) gene was examined in normal and transgenic animals. KOR-lacZ transgene expression was specifically elevated in KOR-positive areas of the developing CNS by depleting vitamin A from animal diets. The endogenous KOR mRNA species, including all three isoforms, were also upregulated by depleting vitamin A in developing animals....
متن کاملPost-transcriptional regulation of mouse kappa-opioid receptor expression.
Three mRNA variants are generated from the mouse kappa-opioid receptor (KOR) gene. The expression patterns of these KOR mRNA variants in adult animal tissues and during developmental stages are examined. Furthermore, the biological significance of generating these variants is demonstrated with respect to two post-transcriptional mechanisms, i.e., mRNA stability and translation efficiency. Varia...
