The role of T-type calcium channels in morphine analgesia, development of antinociceptive tolerance and dependence to morphine, and morphine abstinence syndrome.

Abstract:

:Involvement of T-type voltage dependent Ca2+ channels (VDCCs) on morphine antinociception, in the development of tolerance and dependence to morphine, and naloxone-precipitated abstinence syndrome in morphine dependent mice was examined by using mibefradil, a T-type VDCCs blocker. Mice were rendered tolerant and dependent on morphine by subcutaneous (s.c.) implantation of a morphine pellet containing 75 mg of morphine base for 72 hr. The tail-flick test was used to assess the nociceptive threshold. Coadministration of acute mibefradil (10 mg/kg, i.p.) with morphine enhanced the antinociceptive effects of acute morphine. Repeated mibefradil administration (10 mg/kg, i.p., just before, 24 and 48 hr after morphine pellet implantation) completely blocked the development of tolerance to the antinociceptive effect of morphine and even by this effect reached supersensitivity to morphine. However, repeated mibefradil treatment did not alter the development of dependence to morphine assessed by the A(50) values of naloxone (s.c.) required to precipitate withdrawal jumping 72 hr after morphine pellet. But, acute mibefradil (10, 30, and 50 mg/kg, i.p.) dose dependently decreased the expression of morphine abstinence syndrome when given directly 30 min prior to naloxone (0,05 mg/kg, s.c.) 72 hr after morphine pellet. These results indicate a critical role of T-type VDCCs in morphine antinociception, the development of tolerance to the antinociceptive effects of morphine and in morphine abstinence syndrome.
