Opioids and opioid receptors orchestrate wound repair [PDF]

open access: yesTranslational Research, 2017
We have previously shown that topical opioids including morphine and its congeners promote healing of full thickness ischemic wounds in rats. We examined the contribution of mu opioid receptor (MOPr)-mediated healing of full thickness ischemic wounds using MOPr and delta or kappa opioid receptor knockout (KO) mice. Wound closure in the early (day 5) as

Substance Use Right Before or During Work Among the Young US Workers: Evidence From the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997 Cohort

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Substance use right before or during work (hereinafter, “substance use in the workplace”) poses significant health risks to users, colleagues, and the public in the workplace. However, less clear are figures on recent prevalence, characteristics of those engaging in such behaviors, and variations across occupations.

µ-Opioid receptor antagonism facilitates the anxiolytic-like effect of oxytocin in mice

open access: yesTranslational Psychiatry
Mood and anxiety disorders are leading causes of disability worldwide and are major contributors to the global burden of diseases. Neuropeptides, such as oxytocin and opioid peptides, are important for emotion regulation.

Dopamine D3 Receptor Antagonism Reverses the Escalation of Oxycodone Self-administration and Decreases Withdrawal-Induced Hyperalgesia and Irritability-Like Behavior in Oxycodone-Dependent Heterogeneous Stock Rats. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Prescription opioids, such as oxycodone, are highly effective analgesics for clinical pain management, but approximately 25% of patients who are prescribed opioids misuse them, and 5%-10% develop an opioid use disorder (OUD).

Multiple opioid receptor-like genes are identified in diverse vertebrate phyla [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Polymerase chain reaction was used to determine whether opioid receptor-like sequences are present in species from the protostome and deuterostome branches of the metazoan kingdom.

The cumulative analgesic effect of repeated electroacupuncture is modulated by Adora3 in the SCDH of mice with neuropathic pain

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Neuropathic pain management via repeated electroacupuncture. Abstract Background Existing remedial approaches for relieving neuropathic pain (NPP) are challenging and open the way for alternative therapeutic measures such as electroacupuncture (EA). The mechanism underlying the antinociceptive effects of repeated EA sessions, particularly concerning ...

The novel mu-opioid antagonist, GSK1521498, reduces ethanol consumption in C57BL/6J mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
RATIONALE Using the drinking-in-the-dark (DID) model, we compared the effects of a novel mu-opioid receptor antagonist, GSK1521498, with naltrexone, a licensed treatment of alcohol dependence, on ethanol consumption in mice.

Better agonist for the opioid receptors [PDF]

open access: yesChemistry Central Journal, 2018
This commentary highlights the recent work published in journal Nature on the structural based discovery of novel analgesic compounds for opioid receptors with minimal effects. Manglik et al. selectively targeted the Gi based μOR pathway instead of the β-arrestin pathway of the opioids. The computational screening of millions of compounds showed a list
