Prospects for Creation of Cardioprotective and Antiarrhythmic Drugs Based on Opioid Receptor Agonists [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
It has now been demonstrated that the μ, δ(1), δ(2), and κ(1) opioid receptor (OR) agonists represent the most promising group of opioids for the creation of drugs enhancing cardiac tolerance to the detrimental effects of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R ...

Antinociceptive and Anti‐inflammatory Effect of Nicandrin B Isolated From Datura ferox in Zebrafish

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nicandrin B (Nic B), a withanolide isolated from Datura ferox leaves, was investigated for its antinociceptive and anti‐inflammatory effects in adult zebrafish (Danio rerio). Animals treated with Nic B (4, 20, and 40 mg/kg) showed no toxicity and maintained normal locomotor activity.

Solid Tumor Opioid Receptor Expression and Oncologic Outcomes: Analysis of the Cancer Genome Atlas and Genotype Tissue Expression Project

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
BackgroundOpioid receptors are expressed not only by neural cells in the central nervous system, but also by many solid tumor cancer cells. Whether perioperative opioids given for analgesia after tumor resection surgery might inadvertently activate tumor

Voluntary Ethanol Intake Predicts κ-Opioid Receptor Supersensitivity and Regionally Distinct Dopaminergic Adaptations in Macaques

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2015
The dopaminergic projections from the ventral midbrain to the striatum have long been implicated in mediating motivated behaviors and addiction. Previously it was demonstrated that κ-opioid receptor (KOR) signaling in the striatum plays a critical role ...

Long-acting κ opioid antagonists nor-BNI, GNTI and JDTic: pharmacokinetics in mice and lipophilicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Nor-BNI, GNTI and JDTic induce κ opioid antagonism that is delayed by hours and can persist for months. Other effects are transient. It has been proposed that these drugs may be slowly absorbed or distributed, and may dissolve in cell ...

UPLC–ESI–QToF–MS Profile of Hydroalcoholic Extract of Persea cordata (Meisn.) and its Antioedematogenic and Antinociceptive Effects in Mice

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
Hydroalcoholic crude extract of Persea cordata showed in its composition, the presence of lignans based on LCESIMS data. This crude extract displayed anti‐oedematogenic and antinociceptive activities in vivo. Abstract This study aimed to establish the chemical profile and evaluate the anti‐oedematogenic and analgesic activities of the hydroalcoholic ...

µ-Opioid receptor antagonism facilitates the anxiolytic-like effect of oxytocin in mice

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry
Mood and anxiety disorders are leading causes of disability worldwide and are major contributors to the global burden of diseases. Neuropeptides, such as oxytocin and opioid peptides, are important for emotion regulation.

Prenatal ethanol increases ethanol intake throughout adolescence, alters ethanol‐mediated aversive learning, and affects μ but not δ or κ opioid receptor mRNA expression

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, 2015
Animal models of prenatal ethanol exposure (PEE) have indicated a facilitatory effect of PEE on adolescent ethanol intake, but few studies have assessed the effects of moderate PEE throughout adolescence.

Female rat hippocampal cell density after conditioned place preference [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The hippocampus is important for learning tasks, such as conditioned place preference (CPP), which is widely used as a model for studying the reinforcing effects of drugs with dependence liability.

Modifying Antibiotic Activity of Synthetic Thiadiazine Analogs Against MDR Bacteria and ADMET Analysis

open access: yesChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
The study demonstrated that thidiazine compounds potentiated the action of antibiotics. The compounds associated with norfloxacin against S. aureus showed greater significance in relation to the other medications. The indiscriminate use of antibiotics has led to the selection of resistant bacterial strains, significantly reducing the effectiveness of ...
