G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are notoriously difficult to detect in native tissues. In an effort to resolve this problem, we have developed a novel mouse model by fusing the hemagglutinin (HA)-epitope tag sequence to the amino-terminus of the µ-opioid receptor (MOP). Although HA-MOP knock-in ...

Agonists for the nociceptin/orphanin FQ opioid peptide NOP receptor, a member of the opioid receptor family, are under active investigation as novel analgesics, but their modes of signaling are less well characterized than those for other members of the opioid receptor family. Therefore, we investig...

Opioids analgesics are frequently prescribed in the United States and worldwide. However, serious side effects such as addiction, immunosuppression and gastrointestinal symptoms limit their use. It has been recently demonstrated that morphine treatment results in significant disruption in gut barrie...

Kappa Opioid receptors(KORs) belong to family A of G-protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs), and the involvement of their ligands in analgesia and sedation has been extensively studied. KORs, which are expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems are well known to exert potent anti-nociceptive...

This collaboration of Australian and American investigators aims to identify genes associated with liability for heroin dependence. The project uses a case-control design in which cases met lifetime DSM-IV criteria for heroin dependence. Controls included assessed individuals who did not meet DSM...
