Role of efficacy as a determinant of locomotor activation by mu‐opioid receptor (MOR) ligands in female and male mice. II. Effects of novel MOR‐selective phenylmorphans with high‐to‐low MOR efficacy

open access: yesPharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2023
Low‐efficacy mu‐opioid receptor (MOR) agonists represent promising therapeutics, but existing compounds (e.g., buprenorphine, nalbuphine) span a limited range of low MOR efficacies and have poor MOR selectivity.

Chirality of Novel Bitopic Agonists Determines Unique Pharmacology at the Dopamine D3 Receptor

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
The dopamine D2/D3 receptor (D2R/D3R) agonists are used as therapeutics for Parkinson’s disease (PD) and other motor disorders. Selective targeting of D3R over D2R is attractive because of D3R’s restricted tissue distribution with potentially fewer side ...
