A twin drug consisting of 8-oxaendoethanotetrahydromorphides with a 1,4-dioxane spacer, NS29, was synthesized from a naltrexone derivative. The structure of compound 8, the precursor of NS29, was determined by X-ray crystallography. Monomeric NS28 showed μ opioid receptor antagonist activity, whereas dimeric NS29, consisting of two NS28 units, showed antagonist activities for μ, κ, and the putative ε opioid receptor agonists. Twin drug NS29 and its derivatives are expected to be unique pharmacological tools for investigation of opioid receptor types 相似文献

A modification of the message site in the skeleton of naltrexone was carried out to improve the potency and selectivity of the compound for an opioid receptor subtype. In the course of conversion, we synthesized 7-membered ring ether derivatives, which had an inserted OCH(2) group between 4- and 6-positions of morphinan skeleton. One of the 7-membered ring ether derivatives possessed more potent antagonistic activity than naltrexone for the mu opioid receptor. Another compound possessing 17-methyl group derived from noroxycodone may be a mu opioid receptor partial agonist and showed analgesic activity. We are currently examining the subtype selectivity of these compounds. 相似文献

Effects of comenic and meconic acids on cultured dorsal root ganglion cells were investigated by the whole-cell patch clamp technique. The acids, having a well-known antiinflammatory and antibacterial action, decreased effective charge transfer in the activation gating system of TTX-resistant (slow) sodium channels in a dose-dependent manner. The effects were described by Hill's equation. The dissociation constant and Hill coefficient values were K(D) = 100 nM and X = 0.5 (for comenic acid) and K(D) = 10 nM and X = 0.34 (for meconic acid). The nonspecific antagonist of opioid receptors naltrexone totally blocked the effects. We suggest that the acids studied activate a subpopulation of opioid receptors negatively coupled to TTXr sodium channels. 相似文献

The goal was to develop a rat model for determination of the effects of intrathecally administered drugs on the peripherally induced pruritic behaviors. After chronic intrathecal catheterization, a serotonin derivative (5-methoxytryptamine: MeOT, 200 μg on both sides) was injected into the lower leg skin. After the first period (phase 0: 0-30 min) MeOT injection was repeated and opioid antagonist naltrexone (10 μg), NMDA receptor antagonists ketamine (10-100 μg), kynurenic acid (1-10 μg) or their combinations were injected intrathecally. The second observational period lasted for 60 min (phases I and II, 30-60 and 60-90 min, respectively). MeOT produced pruritic behavior with high degree of interindividual differences. The second MeOT injection caused an enhanced pruritic behavior in Phase I. Naltrexone decreased the pruritic activity, while neither doses of ketamine influenced the effects of MeOT. The higher doses of kynurenic acid resulted in notable decreases in the pruritic behavior. The combinations of naltrexone with ketamine or kynurenic acid produced a prolonged antipruritic effect. Our data suggest an important direction for the development of a new itch model in rats that focuses on the spinal mechanism of itching. Besides, the results revealed the role of the spinal opioid and NMDA receptors in this process. 相似文献

Naltrexone (1), which is a member of the group of competitive opioid antagonists, shows a strong affinity for mu-receptors and its derivatives have been notable as novel receptor antagonists. In this paper, the preparation of several naltrexone derivatives is described; these were used to investigate the role of the oxygenated functional groups in facilitating binding to a series of the opioid receptors. The derivatives showed affinity for opioid mu-receptors which was similar to that of naltrexone, but these compounds, which had masked hydroxyl functional groups, displayed a moderate activity. These results suggest that every oxygenated functional group in naltrexone (1) plays an important role in binding to the opioid receptor. 相似文献

A novel 6,14-epoxymorphinan benzamide derivative (NS22) that was previously reported showed opioid κ receptor agonistic activity and analgesic activity. The unsatisfactory κ selectivity of NS22 led us to synthesize its derivatives to improve the opioid κ receptor selectivity and the agonist activity. In the course of SAR of the various derivatives, 17-benzyl-6,14-epoxymorphinan derivatives (KNT-33, 53, 55, 80, 90, 133) were found to show high selectivities and affinities for the opioid κ receptor. In addition, KNT-33, 53, 55 showed dose-dependent analgesic effects in acetic acid writhing tests. Therefore, 17-benzyl substituents may play an important role for developing κ selectivity. 相似文献

Mu opioid receptor antagonists have clinical utility and are important research tools. To develop non-peptide and highly selective mu opioid receptor antagonist, a series of 14-O-heterocyclic-substituted naltrexone derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated. These compounds showed subnanomolar-to-nanomolar binding affinity for the mu opioid receptor. Among them, compound 1 exhibited the highest selectivity for the mu opioid receptor over the delta and kappa receptors. These results implicated an alternative ‘address’ domain in the extracellular loops of the mu opioid receptor. 相似文献

Although a central site of acute opiate action in regulating luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion has been suggested by the ability of centrally implanted opiate antagonists to increase LH levels, opiate antagonists are lipophilic and could influence the pituitary in situ. Also, the physiological significance of opiate receptor blockade with antagonists rests on the assumed, but untested, stereoselectivity of these receptors. Therefore, a lipophobic quaternized derivative of naltrexone (MRZ 2663-Naltrexone methobromide) and dextro- (+) and levo- (-) stereoisomers of naloxone were used to study the site- and stereoselectivity of gonadotropin responses to opiate antagonists in vivo. Male rats were injected intracerebroventricularly (icv) or intravenously (iv) with the quaternary or tertiary congeners of naltrexone and subcutaneously (sc) with (-) or (+)-naloxone. Rats injected icv with 20 ug of quaternary naltrexone displayed significant increases in serum luteinizing hormone (LH). The onset of the response was rapid with serum LH levels being significantly elevated 15 minutes after the injection and returning to basal levels 30 minutes later. Rats injected iv with 10 mg/kg of quaternary naltrexone failed to show significant LH responses. Rats injected either centrally or periphally with equivalent doses of tertiary naltrexone showed LH responses that were similar to those found in animals injected icv with quaternary naltrexone. As little as 0.5 mg/kg of (-)-naloxone resulted in significant elevations in serum LH that were higher than those elicited by up to 10 mg/kg of (+)-naloxone, indicating that this effect of naloxone is stereoselective. These data support the argument that opioids can acutely modulate LH secretion through actions at stereoselective opioid receptors in the central nervous system. 相似文献

Although chronic administration of naloxone has been reported to reduce food intake and body weight in rats, there have been no comparable investigations using a nonhuman primate. We examined the effects of repeated injections of two long acting opiate antagonists - naltrexone and diprenorphine - on the ad libitum intake of a nutritional complete liquid diet and on body weight in squirrel monkeys. Naltrexone binds with highest affinity to the mu opioid receptor whereas diprenorphine binds with equally high affinity to several subtypes of opioid receptor. Diprenorphine (ED50 = 0.01 mg/kg) was 22 times more potent than naltrexone (ED50 = 0.22 mg/kg) in decreasing 2 h food intake, suggesting that more than one opioid receptor subtype may be involved in the anorectic effects of opiate antagonists. A 1.0 mg/kg dose of drug reduced 24 h food intake by 50% and was associated with a weekly reduction in body weight of 4 and 5% for naltrexone and diprenorphine, respectively. Thus, in contrast with shorter time intervals, 24 h food intakes were similar for the two drugs, and this was associated with comparable body weight profiles. The decreases in food intake and body weight remained constant over the period of drug administration. Some monkeys showed profuse salivation and "wet dog shakes" after 4 days of treatment with the 1.0 mg/kg dose but not after 1 day. Therefore, opiate antagonists given chronically to monkeys reduced food intake and body weight in a dose-dependent manner with no evidence of tolerance to these effects. 相似文献

Naltrexone, an opioid antagonist, has been reported to possess an anti-inflammatory effect via blockade of opioid receptor. The aim of this study is to evaluate the protective effect of naltrexone on LPS-induced septic shock in rats. Sepsis was induced by administration of LPS (10 mg/kg, i.v.) in anesthetized rats. Results demonstrated that pretreatment with naltrexone (10 mg/kg, i.v.) significantly ameliorated hypotension and bradycardia of rats 6 h after LPS administration. In isolated blood vessel, study showed that pretreatment with naltrexone significantly improved norepinephrine-induced vasoconstriction and ACh-induced vasorelaxation in aorta of endotoxemic animals. Naltrexone significantly reduced the elevation of serum glutamate-oxalacetate transaminase and glutamate-pyruvate transaminase (as index of hepatic function) induced by LPS. The infiltration of polymorphonuclear neutrophils into liver 48 h after LPS treatment in mice was also reduced by naltrexone. On the other hand, naltrexone significantly decreased the levels of plasma TNF- and inhibited overproduction of superoxide anions in aortic rings. However, naltrexone did not suppress the overproduction of NO (measured by its metabolites nitrite/nitrate in plasma) and iNOS expression in lungs induced by LPS. In in vitro study, naltrexone did not attenuate non-enzymatic iron-induced lipid peroxidation in rat brain homogenates. In conclusion, pretreatment with naltrexone significantly improved circulatory failure and hepatic dysfunction in sepsis. These effects were associated with reduction of TNF- levels and superoxide anion formation, which may be attributed to antagonism of opioid receptors. 相似文献

Feeding elicited by the mu-selective agonist, [D-Ala2, M-Phe4, Gly-ol5]-encephalin administered into the nucleus accumbens is blocked by accumbal pre-treatment with mu, delta1, delta2 and kappa, but not mu1 opioid antagonists. Correspondingly, mu-agonist-induced feeding elicited from the ventral tegmental area is blocked by ventral tegmental area pre-treatment with mu and kappa, but not delta opioid antagonists. A bi-directional opioid-opioid feeding interaction has been firmly established such that mu-agonist-induced feeding elicited from the ventral tegmental area is blocked by accumbal naltrexone, and that accumbal mu-agonist-induced feeding is blocked by naltrexone pre-treatment in the ventral tegmental area. To determine which opioid receptor subtypes mediate the regional bi-directional opioid-opioid feeding interactions between these two sites, the present study examined the dose-dependent ability of either general (naltrexone), mu (beta-funaltrexamine), kappa (nor-binaltorphamine) or delta (naltrindole) opioid antagonists administered into one site to block mu-agonist-induced feeding elicited from the other site. General, mu and kappa, but not delta opioid receptor antagonist pre-treatment in the ventral tegmental area dose-dependently reduced mu-agonist-induced feeding elicited from the nucleus accumbens. General, mu and delta, and to a lesser degree kappa, opioid receptor antagonist pre-treatment in the nucleus accumbens dose-dependently reduced mu-agonist-induced feeding elicited from the ventral tegmental area. Thus, multiple, but different opioid receptor subtypes are involved in mediating opioid-opioid feeding interactions between the nucleus accumbens and ventral tegmental area regions. 相似文献

Naltrexone, an opioid antagonist, has been used in clinical trials to treat alcoholism. As the opioid peptides beta-endorphin and enkephalin increase splenic NK cell function in laboratory animals, it is anticipated that naltrexone treatment will cause immunosuppression. However, we report in this study that chronic naltrexone administration in laboratory rats increases the cytolytic activity of NK cells. It also prevents alcohol's suppressive effect on these cells. We identified that, in the splenocytes, delta opioid receptor expression is tightly controlled by negative feedback regulation of micro opioid receptors. Naltrexone disrupts this feedback control by reducing micro opioid receptor function, thereby up-regulating delta opioid receptor binding, which results in an enhanced NK cell cytolytic response to delta opioid receptor ligands. We conclude that naltrexone, which has been shown to be a promising agent for the clinical management of alcoholism, may have potential use in the treatment of immune deficiency in alcoholic and nonalcoholic patients. 相似文献

To examine the influence of endogenous opioids on the hormonal response to isotonic exercise, eight males were studied 2 h after oral administration of placebo or 50 mg naltrexone, a long-lasting opioid antagonist. Venous blood samples were obtained before, during, and after 30 min of bicycle exercise at 70% VO2max. Naltrexone had no effect on resting cardiovascular, endocrine, or serum variables. During exercise epinephrine was higher [mean 433 +/- 100 (SE) pg/ml] at 30 min with naltrexone than during placebo (207 +/- 26 pg/ml, P less than 0.05). Plasma norepinephrine showed the same trend but the difference (2,012 +/- 340 pg/ml with naltrexone and 1,562 +/- 241 pg/ml with placebo) was not significant. Plasma glucose was higher at all times with naltrexone. However, the difference was significant only 10 min into recovery from exercise (104.7 +/- 4.7 vs. 94.5 +/- 2.8 mg/dl). Plasma growth hormone and cortisol increased during recovery and these elevations were significantly (P less than 0.05) augmented by naltrexone. Plasma vasopressin and prolactin increased with exercise as did heart rate, blood pressure, lactic acid, and several serum components; these increases were not affected by naltrexone. Psychological tension or anxiety was lower after exercise compared with before and this improved psychological state was not influenced by the naltrexone treatment. These data suggest that exercise-induced activation of the endogenous opioid system may serve to regulate the secretion of several important hormones (i.e., epinephrine) during and after exercise. 相似文献

To enhance the drug-like properties of the endogenous opioid peptide endomorphin-1 (1 = Tyr-Pro-Trp-Phe-NH2), the N-terminus of the peptide was modified with 2-aminodecanoic acid, resulting in compound 3. Tyr in compound 1 was replaced with 2,6-dimethyltyrosine yielding compound 2. Derivative 2 was also substituted with 2-aminodecanoic acid producing compound, 4. Lipoamino acid-modified derivatives showed improved metabolic stability and membrane permeability while maintaining high μ-opioid (MOP) receptor binding affinity and acting as a potent agonist. In vivo studies showed dose-dependent antinociceptive activity following intravenous (i.v.) administration of compounds 3 and 4 in a chronic constriction injury (CCI)-rat model of neuropathic pain with ED50 values of 1.22 (±0.93) and 0.99 (±0.89) µmol/kg, respectively. Pre-treatment of animals with naloxone hydrochloride significantly attenuated the anti-neuropathic effects of compound 3, confirming the key role of opioid receptors in mediating antinociception. In contrast to morphine, no significant constipation was produced following i.v. administration of compound 3 at 16 µmol/kg. Furthermore, following chronic administration of equi-potent doses of compound 3 and morphine to rats, there was less antinociceptive tolerance for compound 3 compared with morphine. 相似文献

Affinity chromatography of solubilized opioid binding sites using CH-Sepharose modified with a new naltrexone derivative 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

An affinity gel containing a newly synthesized derivative of naltrexone, beta-naltrexyl-6-ethylenediamine (NED), was used to purify opioid binding sites by 300-450-fold. Binding sites solubilized from brains of toad, rat and cow using digitonin in the presence of 0.5 M NaCl are retained by the gel and can be eluted with naloxone (1-3 microM) in yields of 20-25%. The biospecificity of the interaction of opioid binding sites with modified beads is supported by the following: 1) unmodified beads do not retain the binding sites, 2) binding sites prebound with an opioid are not retained, 3) dilution of NED gels with unmodified Sepharose progressively reduced efficiency of retention and 4) specific receptor ligands elute binding sites retained on the NED gels. 相似文献

An enkephalin analogue coupled to 'aminofentanyl' has been synthesized and tested for biological activities at the mu and delta opioid receptors. Aminofentanyl which represents a structural derivative of fentanyl has been synthesized by acylation of 1-(2-phenethyl)-4-(N-anilino)piperidine with phthaloyl protected beta-alaninyl chloride in the presence of DIPEA, followed by deprotection with hydrazine hydrate. Aminofentanyl has also been successfully acylated with ethyl isocyanate, various acid anhydrides, to further investigate structure-activity relationships of these new fentanyl derivatives. Among the new derivatives compound 7 which carries a Tyr-D-Ala-Gly-Phe opioid message sequence showed good opioid affinity (1 nM at both delta and mu opioid receptors) and bioactivity (34.9 nM in MVD and 42 nM in GPI/LMMP bioassays). 相似文献

Rats were made sensitive to the effects of the opioid antagonist naltrexone by treating them once weekly with cumulative doses of the drug (1, 3, 10, 30 and 100 mg/kg). Sensitization was monitored by measuring salivation following naltrexone administration. During the first week of treatment, no salivation was noted following any dose of naltrexone. Over a period of 8 weeks, however, increasing amounts of salivation were noted, with the most salivation occurring at the higher doses. Animals treated for 8 weeks with saline never salivated following injections. Following the development of sensitivity to naltrexone, the rats were sacrificed and their brains were assayed for GABA receptor function. GABA-stimulated chloride uptake, a measure of GABA receptor function, was unchanged in the cortex, but was increased in the cerebellum. These results suggest that the effects of naltrexone on cerebellar GABA receptors may be involved in the development of enhanced sensitivity to opioid antagonists. 相似文献

A 6β-N-heterocyclic substituted naltrexamine derivative, NAP, was proposed as a peripheral mu opioid receptor (MOR) selective antagonist based on the in vitro and in vivo pharmacological and pharmacokinetic studies. To further validate this notion, several functional assays were carried out to fully characterize this compound. In the charcoal gavage and intestinal motility assay in morphine-pelleted mice, when administered 0.3 mg/kg or higher doses up to 3 mg/kg subcutaneously, NAP significantly increased the intestinal motility compared to the saline treatment. The comparative opioid withdrawal precipitation study and the lower locomotor assay demonstrated that NAP showed only marginal intrinsic effect in the central nervous system either given subcutaneously or intravenously: no jumps were witnessed for the tested animals even given up to a dose of 50 mg/kg, while similar noticeable wet-dog shakes only occurred at the dose 50 times of those for naloxone or naltrexone, and significant reduction of the hyper-locomotion only happened at the dose as high as 32 mg/kg. Collectively, these results suggested that NAP may serve as a novel lead to develop peripheral MOR selective antagonist which might possess therapeutic potential for opioid-induced bowel dysfunction (OBD), such as opioid-induced constipation (OIC). 相似文献

The prohormone convertases, PC1/3 and PC2 are thought to be responsible for the activation of many prohormones through processing including the endogenous opioid peptides. We propose that maintenance of hormonal homeostasis can be achieved, in part, via alterations in levels of these enzymes that control the ratio of active hormone to prohormone. In order to test the hypothesis that exogenous opioids regulate the endogenous opioid system and the enzymes responsible for their biosynthesis, we studied the effect of short-term morphine or naltrexone treatment on pituitary PC1/3 and PC2 as well as on the level of pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), the precursor gene for the biosynthesis of the endogenous opioid peptide, β-endorphin. Using ribonuclease protection assays, we observed that morphine down-regulated and naltrexone up-regulated rat pituitary PC1/3 and PC2 mRNA. Immunofluorescence and Western blot analysis confirmed that the protein levels changed in parallel with the changes in mRNA levels and were accompanied by changes in the levels of phosphorylated cyclic-AMP response element binding protein. We propose that the alterations of the prohormone processing system may be a compensatory mechanism in response to an exogenous opioid ligand whereby the organism tries to restore its homeostatic hormonal milieu following exposure to the opioid, possibly by regulating the levels of multiple endogenous opioid peptides and other neuropeptides in concert. 相似文献

Morphine was shown to decrease in a dose-dependent manner the effective charge transfer in tetrodotoxin-resistant (TTXr) sodium channel activation system in short-term cultured dorsal root ganglion cells. Morphine seems to interact with opioid receptors because of total block of the binding by naloxone and naltrexone. Neither activating, nor inhibiting G-protein agents exerted any effect on this process. The morphine signal was blocked by extracellular application of 2 x 10(-4) M ouabain. The findings suggest existence of sodium signalling pathway involving receptors, Na+, K(+)-ATPase and the TTXr sodium channels. 相似文献
