The therapeutic potential of sigma (σ) receptors for the treatment of central nervous system diseases: evaluation of the evidence.

abstract：:Opiates lack potent analgesic efficacy in neuropathic pain although it is now generally accepted that the poor effect of these drugs reflects a reduction in their potency. Reduction of morphine antinociceptive potency was postulated to be due to the fact that nerve injury altered the activity of opioid systems or opio...
