Pharmacological Properties of Bivalent Ligands Containing Butorphan Linked to Nalbuphine, Naltrexone, and Naloxone at μ, δ, and κ Opioid Receptors

Our investigation of bivalent ligands at μ, δ, and κ opioid receptors is focused on the preparation of ligands containing κ agonist and μ agonist/antagonist pharmacophores at one end joined by a chain containing the μ antagonist pharmacophores (naltrexone, naloxone, or nalbuphine) at the other end....

Zusammenfassung:Our investigation of bivalent ligands at μ, δ, and κ opioid receptors is focused on the preparation of ligands containing κ agonist and μ agonist/antagonist pharmacophores at one end joined by a chain containing the μ antagonist pharmacophores (naltrexone, naloxone, or nalbuphine) at the other end. These ligands were evaluated in vitro by their binding affinity at μ, δ, and κ opioid receptors and their relative efficacy in the [35S]GTPγS assay.
