Inhibitors of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and anandamide (AEA) uptake, which limit the degradation of endogenous cannabinoids, have received interest as potential therapeutics for pain. There is also evidence that endogenous cannabinoids mediat

The present study examined the effects of the mGluR1 antagonist JNJ16259685 (JNJ) and the mGluR5 antagonist 2-methyl-6-phenylethynylpyridine (MPEP) alone and in combination with morphine in two acute pain models (hotplate, warm water tail-withdrawal)

Rationale Manipulation of glucocorticoid receptor signaling has been shown to alter the acquisition and expression of ethanol-induced locomotor sensitization in mice. It is unknown if other components of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA)-a

Mutant mice lacking the RIIbeta subunit of protein kinase A (regulatory subunit II beta(-/-)) show increased ethanol preference. Recent evidence suggests a relationship between heightened ethanol preference and susceptibility to ethanol-induced locom

Evidence suggests that gonadal hormones can modulate sensitivity to nociceptive stimuli and opioid antinociception. However, cross-study comparisons addressing the nature of this modulation have been complicated by a number of methodologic factors, i

Sex differences in opioid antinociception have been reported in rodents and monkeys, with opioids being more potent in males than females. In the present study, the influence of rat strain on sex differences in opioid antinociception was examined in

Previous research has demonstrated that, in male rats, the magnitude of contact hypersensitivity (CHS) can be enhanced by morphine treatment. The present experiments test the hypothesis that the mu-opioids morphine, etorphine, and buprenorphine would

The use of irreversible antagonists to assess opioid efficacy has proven fruitful for classifying opioids on the basis of high or low efficacy, but few studies have provided quantitative estimates of efficacy. The purpose of this study was to use bet

The present study examined the influence of sex on the antinociceptive effects of (-)-pentazocine, morphine and spiradoline in four rat strains, using a warm-water (50, 52 and 55 degrees C) tail-withdrawal procedure. In F344, Lewis, Sprague-Dawley (S

Background The nonselective opioid receptor antagonist, naltrexone (NAL), reduces alcohol (ethanol [EtOH]) consumption in animals and humans and is an approved medication for treating alcohol abuse disorders. Proopiomelanocortin (POMC)-derived melano
