Opioid Receptors

Annual Review of Biochemistry, 2004
▪ Abstract  Opioid receptors belong to the large superfamily of seven transmembrane-spanning (7TM) G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). As a class, GPCRs are of fundamental physiological importance mediating the actions of the majority of known neurotransmitters and hormones. Opioid receptors are particularly intriguing members of this receptor family.

Opioid receptor polymorphismsand opioid abuse

Pharmacogenomics, 2002
The sequencing of the human genome is only the first step. The next step is to determine the function of these genes and in particular, how alterations in specific genes lead to major human disorders. Many laboratories are now focusing on identifying and characterizing single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), to determine which correlate in frequency ...

Opioid Receptors

Annual Review of Medicine, 2016
Opioids are the oldest and most potent drugs for the treatment of severe pain. Their clinical application is undisputed in acute (e.g., postoperative) and cancer pain, but their long-term use in chronic pain has met increasing scrutiny. This article reviews mechanisms underlying opioid analgesia and other opioid actions.

Opioid Receptor Regulation

NeuroMolecular Medicine, 2004
Opioid receptors are regulated by multiple mechanisms, which are believed to contribute to the physiological plasticity of the endogenous opioid system in response to natural neuropeptides, as well as clinically relevant opiate drugs. Considerable progress has been made in elucidating molecular and cellular mechanisms of opioid receptor regulation. The

Opioid Receptor Assays

Current Protocols in Pharmacology, 1998
AbstractOpioid receptors mediate the pharmacologic actions of morphine‐like analgesics, a class of drugs that are important clinical agents which are also widely abused socially as a result of their euphorogenic and addictive properties. Cloning of the opioid receptors has confirmed the original postulate that there are only three classes of opioid ...

Opioid Receptors

2021
Opioid receptors, beyond their involvement in pain transmission, play a number of relevant physiological roles in the central nervous system and in peripheral organs. Opioid receptors can be considered a crossroads where endogenous opioid peptides and foreign opioids and opiates meet the cell and transmit their messages to another vast array of ...
