The involvement of opioid delta-receptors in stress induced antinociception in mice. 1983

S L Hart, and H Slusarczyk, and T W Smith

The selective opioid delta-receptor antagonist, ICI 154,129, attenuated the antinociception, assessed by prolongation of reaction time on the hot-plate, of mice which had swum for 3 min at 20 degrees C. This stress-induced antinociception was also sensitive to naloxone suggesting the involvement of both delta- and mu-receptors. A swim of 0.5 min at 30 degrees C did not produce antinociception on the hot plate but the writhing response to i.p. acetic acid was blocked by a non-opioid mechanism.

D011957 Receptors, Opioid Cell membrane proteins that bind opioids and trigger intracellular changes which influence the behavior of cells. The endogenous ligands for opioid receptors in mammals include three families of peptides, the enkephalins, endorphins, and dynorphins. The receptor classes include mu, delta, and kappa receptors. Sigma receptors bind several psychoactive substances, including certain opioids, but their endogenous ligands are not known.

D004743 Enkephalin, Leucine One of the endogenous pentapeptides with morphine-like activity. It differs from MET-ENKEPHALIN in the LEUCINE at position 5. Its first four amino acid sequence is identical to the tetrapeptide sequence at the N-terminal of BETA-ENDORPHIN.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013312 Stress, Physiological The unfavorable effect of environmental factors (stressors) on the physiological functions of an organism.

D013550 Swimming An activity in which the body is propelled through water by specific movement of the arms and/or the legs. Swimming as propulsion through water by the movement of limbs, tail, or fins of animals is often studied as a form of PHYSICAL EXERTION or endurance.
