Acute systemic administration of morphine selectively increases mu opioid receptor binding in the rat brain
(Elsevier, 1984-12)
Opioid receptor binding, including the mu, delta, and kappa receptor subtypes, was compared in morphine-injected and control rats. Brain tissues were homogenized and centrifuged either one or two times prior to receptor ...
Effects of contextual or olfactory cues previously paired with morphine withdrawal on behavior and pain sensitivity in the rat
(Springer-Verlag, 2001-08)
Rationale: Pavlovian conditioning processes have been accorded an important role in maintaining persistent opiate administration. At least one locus for this contribution is during opiate withdrawal. These experiments ...
Dynorphin immunocytochemistry in the rat central nervous system
(Elsevier, 1982)
The distribution of dynorphin in the central nervous system was investigated in rats pretreated with relatively high doses (300-400 [mu]g) of colchicine administered intracerebroventricularly. To circumvent the problems ...
Prodynorphin peptide immunocytochemistry in rhesus monkey brain
(Elsevier, 1985)
The present study describes the immunocytochemical distribution of peptides derived from the prodynorphin precursor in the brain of the rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta). Animals were treated with colchicine (intracerebrove ...
Regional processing of the N- and C-terminal domains of proopiomelanocortin in monkey pituitary and brain
(Elsevier, 1988-04)
The total content and extent of processing of the [gamma]3MSH and [beta]-endorphin-containing N- and C-terminal domains of proopiomelanocortin were determined in the anterior and intermediate lobes of the pituitaries and ...
