Hypothalamic orexin--a neurons are involved in the response of the brain stress system to morphine withdrawal. [PDF]
Both the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and the extrahypothalamic brain stress system are key elements of the neural circuitry that regulates the negative states during abstinence from chronic drug exposure.

Involvement of noradrenergic transmission in the PVN on CREB activation, TORC1 levels, and pituitary-adrenal axis activity during morphine withdrawal. [PDF]
Experimental and clinical findings have shown that administration of adrenoceptor antagonists alleviated different aspects of drug withdrawal and dependence. The present study tested the hypothesis that changes in CREB activation and phosphorylated TORC1

Role of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) receptor-1 on the catecholaminergic response to morphine withdrawal in the nucleus accumbens (NAc). [PDF]
Stress induces the release of the peptide corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) into the ventral tegmental area (VTA), and also increases dopamine (DA) levels in brain regions receiving dense VTA input.

Chemical composition of Zhumeria majdae essential oil and its effects on the expression of morphine withdrawal syndrome and tolerance to the anticonvulsant effect of morphine on pentylenetetrazole-induced seizures in mice [PDF]
Regarding the proven anticonvulsant effect of Zhumeria majdae essential oil (ZMEO) in previous studies we were prompted to investigate the ZMEO effects on the tolerance to the anticonvulsant effects of morphine and the morphine withdrawal syndrome ...

The (–)-Borneol Effect on Addiction/Abstinence by Morphine in Mice
Opioids such as morphine are the first choice in acute and chronic pain treatment. However, they lead to addiction. Several studies have searched (i) to find a molecule that can replace morphine use or (ii) to reduce its adverse effects.

Flavonoids Reduce Morphine Withdrawal In-vitro
AbstractThe effects of quercetin, flavone, catechin and chrysin on the naloxone-precipitated withdrawal contracture of the acute morphine-dependent guinea-pig ileum have been investigated in-vitro.After 4 min in-vitro exposure to morphine a strong contracture of guinea-pig isolated ileum was observed after the addition of naloxone.

Effects of glucosamine against morphine-induced antinociceptive tolerance and dependence in mice
Background The most important limitations of morphine in pain therapy are its tolerance and dependence. In this study, we evaluated the protective effect of glucosamine against morphine-induced tolerance and dependence in mice.
