The adrenergic system, because of its reported implication in pain mechanisms, may be a potential target for chronic pain treatment. We previously demonstrated that β 2 -adrenoceptors (β 2 -ARs) are essential for neuropathic pain treatment by ...

Cannabis Use Among People Aged 65 and Older: Results From an Intercept Survey in New York City
ABSTRACT Background Cannabis use among older adults has increased in recent years. Age‐related physiological changes, socio‐ecological factors, and medications may exacerbate potential adverse effects of cannabis and complicate the detection of cannabis use disorder (CUD) in older adults.

N-Alkyl-octahydroisoquinolin-1-one-8-carboxamides: Selective and Nonbasic κ-Opioid Receptor Ligands
Herein, we report that N-alkyl-octahydroisoquinolin-1-one-8-carboxamides are a novel class of readily synthesized, selective κ-opioid receptor (KOR) ligands. A striking feature of this class of compounds is the absence of any basic nitrogen atoms.

Systemic, Lifestyle and Environmental Modifying Factors in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis
A variety of impacting factors in the pathogenesis of periodontitis exist, including systemic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. This review highlights the manifold mechanistic aspects of the link between the pathogenesis of periodontitis, addressing these numerous factors to supplement the long‐standing knowledge of the progression of the disease.

ABSTRACT Chronic pain and sleep disturbances frequently co‐occur. However, most prior research relies on self‐report or actigraphy, which reflect behavioural aspects of sleep but provide only limited insight into the underlying sleep physiology. In this pre‐registered prospective observational study (NCT06368531), we investigated within‐person night‐to‐

Structure of the human κ-opioid receptor in complex with JDTic [PDF]
Opioid receptors mediate the actions of endogenous and exogenous opioids on many physiological processes, including the regulation of pain, respiratory drive, mood, and—in the case of κ-opioid receptor (κ-OR)—dysphoria and psychotomimesis. Here we report

8-epi-Salvinorin B: crystal structure and affinity at the κ opioid receptor
There have been many reports of epimerization of salvinorins at C-8 under basic conditions, but little evidence has been presented to establish the structure of these compounds.

Multimodal analgesic approaches to manage acute and chronic pain are commonly used in humans. Here, we attempted to characterize a synergistic interaction between fentanyl, tramadol, and paracetamol on the inhibition of nociception in a model of visceral

The Overexpression of Bcl-2 Antagonizes the Proapoptotic Function of the Kappa-Opioid Receptor
Opioid receptors are G-protein-coupled cell-surface receptors that are mainly expressed in neuronal cells. Stimulation of the K-opioid receptor expressed by cultured human epithelial cancer cells promotes staurosporine-induced apoptosis.
