Abstract:
:The inhibition of the tail-flick response induced by beta-endorphin given i.c.v. has been demonstrated to be mediated by the stimulation of epsilon- but not mu-, delta- or kappa-opioid receptors. beta-Endorphin given i.t. also inhibited the tail-flick response. The present studies were designed to determine what types of opioid receptors in the spinal cord were involved in i.t. beta-endorphin-induced tail-flick inhibition. Blockade of kappa-opioid receptors by coadministration of nor-binaltorphimine or Win 44,441-3 with beta-endorphin given i.t. dose dependently inhibited i.t. beta-endorphin-induced inhibition of the tail-flick response. Blockade of mu-opioid receptors by i.t. coadministration of D-Phe-Cys-Tyr-D-Try-Orn-Thr-Pen-Thr-NH2 with beta-endorphin blocked i.t. beta-endorphin-induced inhibition of the tail-flick response. I.t. injection of delta-opioid receptors antagonists, ICI 174,864 and naltrindole, or epsilon-opioid receptor antagonist, beta-endorphin-(1-27), did not affect inhibition of the tail-flick response induced by beta-endorphin given i.t. Blockade of alpha 2-adrenoceptors and 5-HT receptors by i.t. injection of yohimbine and methysergide, respectively, also did not affect inhibition of the tail-flick response induced by beta-endorphin given i.t. The results indicate that the inhibition of the tail-flick response induced by beta-endorphin given i.t. is mediated by the stimulation of kappa- and mu-opioid receptors but not delta- and epsilon-opioid receptors, alpha 2-adrenoceptors or 5-HT receptors.
