Interactions of the opioid and cannabinoid systems in reward: Insights from knockout studies

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2015
The opioid system consists of three receptors, mu, delta, and kappa, which are activated by endogenous opioid peptides (enkephalins, endorphins and dynorphins). The endogenous cannabinoid system comprises lipid neuromodulators (endocannabinoids), enzymes

Chronic opioid pretreatment potentiates the sensitization of fear learning by trauma. [PDF]

, 2020
Despite the large comorbidity between PTSD and opioid use disorders, as well as the common treatment of physical injuries resulting from trauma with opioids, the ability of opioid treatments to subsequently modify PTSD-related behavior has not been well ...

Stress-Induced Reinstatement of Drug Seeking: 20 Years of Progress [PDF]

, 2015
In human addicts, drug relapse and craving are often provoked by stress. Since 1995, this clinical scenario has been studied using a rat model of stress-induced reinstatement of drug seeking.

kappa-Opioid receptor signaling and brain reward function [PDF]

Brain Research Reviews, 2009
The dynorphin-like peptides have profound effects on the state of the brain reward system and human and animal behavior. The dynorphin-like peptides affect locomotor activity, food intake, sexual behavior, anxiety-like behavior, and drug intake. Stimulation of kappa-opioid receptors, the endogenous receptor for the dynorphin-like peptides, inhibits ...

Neurons derived from human-induced pluripotent stem cells express mu and kappa opioid receptors

Neural Regeneration Research, 2021
Neuroprotection studies have shown that induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells have the possibility to transform neuroprotection research. In the present study, iPS cells were generated from human renal epithelial cells and were then differentiated into ...

Scalable Production of Highly-Sensitive Nanosensors Based on Graphene Functionalized with a Designed G Protein-Coupled Receptor [PDF]

, 2014
We have developed a novel, all-electronic biosensor for opioids that consists of an engineered mu opioid receptor protein, with high binding affinity for opioids, chemically bonded to a graphene field-effect transistor to read out ligand binding.

Kappa opioid receptor and oligodendrocyte remyelination

, 2019
Adult oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) maintain the abilities to differentiate and myelinate denuded axons in demyelinating diseases, such as Multiple Sclerosis (MS), albert often inefficiently. Remyelination therapies seek to enhance endogenous remyelination and represent a promising approach to achieve functional and cellular architectural ...

Ascent of the kappa-opioid receptor in psychopharmacology [PDF]

Psychopharmacology, 2010
Often overshadowed by other members of the endogenous opioid receptor family, kappa-opioid receptors (KORs) are rapidly emerging as an important target for the study and treatment of a variety of central nervous system disorders. This Special Issue is dedicated to 18 papers that describe some of the newest and most important developments.

Modifying Antibiotic Activity of Synthetic Thiadiazine Analogs Against MDR Bacteria and ADMET Analysis

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
The study demonstrated that thidiazine compounds potentiated the action of antibiotics. The compounds associated with norfloxacin against S. aureus showed greater significance in relation to the other medications. The indiscriminate use of antibiotics has led to the selection of resistant bacterial strains, significantly reducing the effectiveness of ...
