Book Synopsis The Opiate Receptors by : Gavril Pasternak
Download or read book The Opiate Receptors written by Gavril Pasternak and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growth of the opiate field over the past decade has been enor mous. Initial interest focused upon the strategic clinical impor tance of morphine and its analogs, but the discovery of the enkephalins and the other endogenous opioid peptides with their widespread actions within brain has expanded the field to investi gators in almost all areas of neuroscience as well as pharmacol ogy. Unfortunately, this field of research with its vast literature has become progressively more complex. The receptors are no longer limited to opiates, but include many subtypes selective for the opioid peptides. Indeed, they might be better termed opioid, rather than opiate, receptors. Many controversies have emerged and been settled; others remain. Early studies must now be inter preted on the basis of current information. Thousands of papers examining various aspects of opiates and the endogenous opioids present separate pieces of a large puzzle. The goal of this volume is to put the pieces together to give a coherent overview of opiate receptor pharmacology and to provide insights into both the mo lecular and classical pharmacology of opiates and the opioid pep tides. The issue of multiple classes of opiate and opioid peptide re ceptors and their importance in understanding mechanisms of ac tion provides the major focus of the book. The study of opiates and opioid peptides provides a unique research opportunity in the neuropharmacology of drug receptors.

Book Synopsis Pharmacology of Opioid Peptides by : L F Tseong
Download or read book Pharmacology of Opioid Peptides written by L F Tseong and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1995-09-01 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is being published at a time when opioid receptors have recently been cloned. The structural characteristics of opioid receptors and the recent advances in their molecular cloning and expression are explicated. Connecting these cloned opioid receptors with the pharmacology of opioid receptor actions is of particular importance. The use of antisense oligodeoxynucleotides to opioid receptors to elucidate the neural mechanisms of opioid action is detailed. As analgesia is one of the most important clinical functions for opioids and opioid peptides, this book concentrates on the detailed mechanisms of action of opioids and opioid peptides for the production of analgesia. The significant pharmacologic actions of opioids and opioid peptides in gastrointestinal function, immune function, cardiovascular and respiratory regulation, addiction and the cellular mechanisms involved in tolerance and dependence of opioids are also described. The book will be of interest both to researchers investigating the neural mechanisms of the pharmacologic and physiologic functions of the endogenous opioid system and to clinicians who are involved in pain management and assessment.
Book Synopsis Imaging Drug Action in the Brain by : Edythe D. London
Download or read book Imaging Drug Action in the Brain written by Edythe D. London and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1992-12-21 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imaging Drug Action in the Brain is an outstanding reference that provides detailed methodological information and presents a current review of information obtained using various methods to delineate the neuroanatomy of drug action. It presents material covering selective lesioning and intracranial injections in intact animals. It examines various applications of receptor binding techniques and their importance in pharmacology. In vivo metabolic mapping studies to delineate the distributions of action of psychoactive drugs in animals are reviewed in detail. Imaging Drug Action in the Brain presents recent advances in extending these types of studies to human investigations, using positron emission tomography (PET) scanning and electrophysiological imaging techniques. Applications of immunocytochemical and molecular biology techniques in studies of drug action are explained. Imaging Drug Action in the Brain is the only book that encompasses all of these techniques with up-to-date examples of their applications. It is an essential resource for researchers in the fields of neuropharmacology, neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and nuclear medicine.

Book Synopsis Characterization of Delta Opioid Receptor Function in Rat Brain by Pharmacological and Antisense Techniques by : Graeme L. Fraser
Download or read book Characterization of Delta Opioid Receptor Function in Rat Brain by Pharmacological and Antisense Techniques written by Graeme L. Fraser and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The opioid family of G-protein coupled receptors comprises four known receptor subtype genes (delta, mu, kappa, ORL1) and further receptor heterogeneity within each opioid receptor subfamily has been proposed. All four genes are expressed throughout the central nervous system and are believed to modulate a variety of behavioural responses including analgesia. Opiate drugs such as morphine that are selective for the mu receptor subtype are effective analgesics, but their chronic use is limited by the appearance of side effects such as respiratory depression, constipation and dependence. Consequently, the analgesic potential of agonists selective for other opioid receptors is under investigation. In this regard, previous studies suggest that delta agonists mediate antinociception, yet produce fewer adverse effects than mu agonists. To further investigate the cloned delta opioid receptor (DOR) as a target for novel analgesics, the pharmacological role of DOR in brain was evaluated in rats." --

Download or read book Itch written by E. Carstens and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in itch research have elucidated differences between itch and pain but have also blurred the distinction between them. There is a long debate about how somatic sensations including touch, pain, itch, and temperature sensitivity are encoded by the nervous system. Research suggests that each sensory modality is processed along a fixed, direct-line communication system from the skin to the brain. Itch: Mechanisms and Treatment presents a timely update on all aspects of itch research and the clinical treatment of itch that accompanies many dermatological conditions including psoriasis, neuropathic itch, cutaneous t-cells lymphomas, and systemic diseases such as kidney and liver disease and cancer. Composed of contributions from distinguished researchers around the world, the book explores topics such as: Neuropathic itch Peripheral neuronal mechanism of itch The role of PAR-2 in neuroimmune communication and itch Mrgprs as itch receptors The role of interleukin-31 and oncostatin M in itch and neuroimmune communication Spinal coding of itch and pain Spinal microcircuits and the regulation of itch Examining new findings on cellular and molecular mechanisms, the book is a compendium of the most current research on itch, its prevalence in society, and the problems associated with treatment.
