This study investigated the role of K(ATP) channels in morphine-induced antinociception and hepatic oxidative stress in acute and inflammatory pain. The K(ATP) channel modulators (K(ATP) channel opener, diazoxide 100 mg/kg, p.o, and K(ATP) channel blocker, glibenclamide, 3 mg/kg i.p.) were administered with morphine (80 mg/kg, i.p.). Antinociception was assessed by the tail-flick and formalin t...
UNLABELLED To explore further the role of inflammatory processing on peripheral opioid pharmacology, we examined whether the potency of intraarticular (i.a.) or intrathecal (i.t) morphine in tests of thermal and mechanical nociception changed during the induction of experimental arthritis in the rat. Thermal nociception by i.t. morphine (3, 10, and 50 micrograms) or i.a. morphine (100, 1000, an...
Pain is a significant clinical problem, and there is a need for more effective treatments with reduced adverse effects that currently limit the use of μ opioid receptor agonists. Synthetic κ opioid receptor agonists have no abuse liability and well-documented antinociceptive effects; however, adverse effects (diuresis, dysphoria) preclude their use in the clinic. Combining κ opioids with nonopi...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The κ receptor has a central role in modulating neurotransmission in central and peripheral neuronal circuits that subserve pain and other behavioural responses. Although κ receptor agonists do not produce euphoria or lead to respiratory suppression, they induce dysphoria and sedation. We hypothesized that brain-penetrant κ receptor ligands possessing biased agonism towar...
UNLABELLED Cav2.3 (R-type) voltage-activated Ca(2+) channels (VACCs), encoded by the calcium channel, voltage-dependent, R-type, α1E subunit (CACNA1E) gene, are responsible for transmission of somatic inflammatory pain, and activation of antinociception elicited by visceral inflammatory pain stimuli. Carriers of the minor G allele of the rs3845446 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the CAC...
In the mouse 55°C warm-water tail-withdrawal assay, a single administration of nor-binaltorphimine (nor-BNI; 10 mg/kg i.p.) antagonized κ-opioid receptor (KOR) agonist-induced antinociception up to 14 days, whereas naloxone (10 mg/kg i.p.)-mediated antagonism lasted less than 1 day. In saturation binding experiments, mouse brain membranes isolated and washed 1 or 7 (but not 14) days after nor-B...
Morphine and delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) produce antinociception via mu opioid and cannabinoid CB1 receptors, respectively, located in central nervous system (CNS) regions including periaqueductal gray and spinal cord. Chronic treatment with morphine or THC produces antinociceptive tolerance and cellular adaptations that include receptor desensitization. Previous studies have shown that a...
Four experiments examined the role of the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) and subjacent nucleus reticularis ventralis (NRV) in the production of antinociception. Experiment 1 showed that microinjection of glutamate (50 nmol) into the caudal NTS resulted in inhibition of the tail-flick reflex, hypotension, and mild bradycardia, whereas microinjection of glutamate into the rostral NTS resulted o...
The mechanism of action of acetaminophen is currently widely discussed. Direct inhibition of cyclooxygenase isoforms remains the commonly advanced hypothesis. We combined behavioral studies with molecular techniques to investigate the mechanism of action of acetaminophen in a model of tonic pain in rats. We show that acetaminophen indirectly stimulates spinal 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)1A recept...
BACKGROUND The amygdala is a forebrain region, which is known as a modulator of pain sensation. The amygdala, particularly the central nucleus, has high concentrations of enkephalins relative to dynorphins and has high concentrations of opioid receptors. We here studied the role of central nuclei of amygdala in morphine antinociception. METHODS In this study, we used 130 male Wistar rats (200...
