The role of the opioid system in binge eating disorder. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Binge eating disorder is characterized by excessive, uncontrollable consumption of palatable food within brief periods of time. Excessive intake of palatable food is thought to be driven by hedonic, rather than energy homeostatic, mechanisms.

Opioids in breast cancer: Between analgesia and modulation of tumour progression

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Preclinical investigations consistently demonstrate that activation of μ‐opioid receptors and δ‐opioid receptors promote proliferation, migration, angiogenesis, epithelial‐mesenchymal transition, acquisition of cancer stem cell phenotypes, and chemoresistance.

Establishment of Opioid-Induced Rewarding Effects Under Oxaliplatin-and Paclitaxel-Induced Neuropathy in Rats

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2014
The rewarding effects of μ-receptor agonists can be suppressed under several pain conditions. We recently showed that clinically used μ-receptor agonists possess efficacies for relieving the neuropathic pain induced by chemotherapeutic drug in rats ...

Novel Histopathologic Features of Diffuse Blue‐Gray Hyperpigmentation Associated With Kratom Use: A Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesJournal of Cutaneous Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Drug‐induced hyperpigmentation accounts for 10%–20% of acquired pigmentary disorders and can be misdiagnosed for other causes such as melasma, post inflammatory changes, or heavy metal deposition. Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa), a Southeast Asian plant with an opioid‐like profile, has been increasingly used in the United States for ...

Bidirectional Regulation of Opioid and Chemokine Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
The opioid family of GPCRs consists of the classical opioid receptors, designated μ-, κ-, and δ-opioid receptors, and the orphanin-FQ receptor, and these proteins are expressed on both neuronal and hematopoietic cells.

Reduced analgesic effect of acupuncture-like TENS but not conventional TENS in opioid treated patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
: Evidence from recent animal studies indicates that the analgesic effect of low frequency TENS is reduced in opioid tolerant animals. The aim of the present study was to compare the analgesic effect of conventional (high frequency) and acupuncture-like

Individualism and working from home

open access: yesEconomic Inquiry, EarlyView.
Abstract We show that culturally transmitted individualism is an important determinant of working from home (WFH). Using individual‐level data from the U.S. Current Population Survey (CPS) and the European Social Survey (ESS), we compare immigrants and their descendants from different cultural backgrounds residing in the same location.

ATHENA: A Phase 3, Open-Label Study Of The Safety And Effectiveness Of Oliceridine (TRV130), A G-Protein Selective Agonist At The µ-Opioid Receptor, In Patients With Moderate To Severe Acute Pain Requiring Parenteral Opioid Therapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background:Pain management with conventional opioids can be challenging due to dose-limiting adverse events (AEs), some of which may be related to the simultaneous activation of β-arrestin (a signaling pathway associated with opioid-related AEs) and G ...

Mas-related G-protein–coupled receptors inhibit pathological pain in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
An important objective of pain research is to identify novel drug targets for the treatment of pathological persistent pain states, such as inflammatory and neuropathic pain.

Aetiological relevance of haematological, biochemical and endocrine parameters on equine odontoclastic tooth resorption and hypercementosis (EOTRH)

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The dental syndrome EOTRH is a painful, progressive dental disease with an unknown aetiology. The often painful nature of EOTRH emphasises the need for a better knowledge of the underlying pathogenic mechanism and risk factors. A comparative analysis of haematological, biochemical and endocrine values in EOTRH‐affected and non ...
