Mu-delta opioid interactions II: β-FNA inhibits DPDPE-induced increases in morphine EEG and EEG spectral power
In the present study, the effects of β-FNA on DPDPE-induced increases in morphine EEG and EEG power spectra were assessed. Adult female Sprague-Dawley rats were implanted with cortical EEG electrodes and permanent indwelling ICV and IV cannulae. Rats were administered ICV β-FNA at 20 nmol or ICV ste...

Zusammenfassung: | In the present study, the effects of β-FNA on DPDPE-induced increases in morphine EEG and EEG power spectra were assessed. Adult female Sprague-Dawley rats were implanted with cortical EEG electrodes and permanent indwelling ICV and IV cannulae. Rats were administered ICV β-FNA at 20 nmol or ICV sterile water. Then 18–24 h later, rats were administered ICV DPDPE at 2.5 nmol or ICV sterile water followed, 10 min later, by IV morphine at 3 mg/kg. Morphine-induced changes in EEG global (1–50 Hz) spectral parameters, the duration of morphine-induced high voltage EEG bursts, the period of EEG and behavioral excitation, and the latency to onset of slow-wave sleep were statistically analyzed using a one-way analysis of variance. β-FNA pretreatment significantly decreased morphine-induced total spectral power seen in the DPDPE + morphine group. β-FNA pretreatment also significantly decreased the duration of morphine-induced EEG bursts, the period of EEG and behavioral excitation, and the latency to onset of slow-wave sleep in the DPDPE + morphine group. These data, therefore, suggest that DPDPE may be increasing the effects of morphine on EEG through delta opioid receptors associated within the mu-delta opioid receptor complex. |
