Dopamine-dependent responses to morphine depend on glucocorticoid receptors [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1998
Previous work has shown that glucocorticoid hormones facilitate the behavioral and dopaminergic effects of morphine. In this study we examined the possible role in these effects of the two central corticosteroid receptor types: mineralocorticoid receptor (MR), and glucocorticoid receptor (GR).

Molecular Glue Degraders Enhance CAPRIN1‐Dependent Lysosomal Degradation of APP and Reduce Amyloid β in Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A new class of lysosome‐directed molecular glue degraders selectively enhance CAPRIN1–APP interactions, driving APP degradation and reducing amyloid‐β production in human neurons and Alzheimer's disease mouse models. This CAPRIN1‐dependent targeted protein degradation strategy reveals a previously unrecognized therapeutic approach for disrupting the ...

Neural mechanisms underlying morphine withdrawal in addicted patients: a review [PDF]

open access: yesReviews in Clinical Medicine, 2015
Morphine is one of the most potent alkaloid in opium, which has substantial medical uses and needs and it is the first active principle purified from herbal source. Morphine has commonly been used for relief of moderate to severe pain as it acts directly

Regional Differences of L-type High Voltage-Gated Calcium Channel Subunit Expression in the Mouse Brain After Chronic Morphine Treatment

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2007
As functional changes in L-type high voltage-gated calcium channels (HVCCs) are recognized to be one of the major neurochemical modifications occurring in brains of animals with morphine physical dependence, this study attempts to examine whether ...

Rat brain proteome in morphine dependence

open access: yesNeurochemistry International, 2006
The aim of this study was to reveal potential markers associated with drug dependence, using the proteomic approach. Gels containing samples derived from morphine-treated and control animals were compared and analyzed. Inspection of protein profiles, following TCA/acetone precipitation and the use of nano-scale liquid chromatography coupled to tandem ...

Drug Dependence, Synaptic Plasticity, and Tissue Plasminogen Activator

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2005
The mesocorticolimbic dopaminergic system plays an important role in the reinforcing effects of drugs of abuse, and the activity-dependent synaptic plasticity of the system is involved in drug dependence.

The significance of the adenosinergic system in morphine dependence

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Pharmacy and Medical Sciences, 2015
Addiction is a chronic and recurrent disease. In its pathology, neuroadaptive changes within the dopaminergic pathways inside the mesolimbic system play a predominant role.

Morphine Reduces Expression of TRPV1 Receptors in the Amygdala but not in the Hippocampus of Male Rats

open access: yesIranian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2014
Background: Chronic use of opioids usually results in physical dependence. The underlying mechanisms for this dependence are still being evaluated. Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1) are important receptors of pain perception.

Attenuation of morphine tolerance and dependence by thymoquinone in mice [PDF]

open access: yesAvicenna Journal of Phytomedicine, 2016
Objectives: Dependence and tolerance are major restricting factors in the clinical use of opioid analgesics. In the present study, the effects of thymoquinone, the major constituent of Nigella sativa seeds, on morphine dependence and tolerance were ...
