(7) This effect of DAGO was not due to spread to the third ventricle and subsequent diffusion via the CSF to another CNS site, since push-pull perfusion with this dose of DAGO in the region just dorsal to or in the posterior hypothalamus was ineffective in altering LH pulse amplitude.
(8) The mu-agonist DAGO ([D-Ala2,N-MePhe4,Gly-ol5]enkephalin; 0.75 nmol i.c.v.)
(9) Mu and delta receptors were labeled with the selective ligands 3H-DAGO (Tyr- D-Ala-Gly-MePhe-Gly-ol), and 3H-DPDPE (D-Pen2, D-Pen5-enkephalin), respectively, while the kappa receptors were labeled with 3H-(-)bremazocine in the presence of unlabeled DAGO and DPDPE.
(10) Morphine, Leu-enkephalin, D-Ala2, N-methyl-Phe4, Gly-ol5-enkephalin (DAGO) and D-Ser2-Leu-enkephalin-Thr (DSLET) each inhibited the synthesis of cyclic AMP.
(11) The purpose of the present study was firstly to determine whether morphine and (D-Ala2, NMe-Phe4, Gly-ol)-enkephalin (DAGO), a highly selective mu-agonist, increased intracellular free calcium of rat myocytes and secondly to determine whether opioid receptors were involved.
(12) We examined the interactions between glutamate and a selective mu opioid receptor agonist, D-Ala2-MePhe4-Gly-ol5-enkephalin (DAGO), in spinal trigeminal neurons in thin medullary slices of rats.
(13) mu-Receptors' agonist DAGO injection significantly decreased rat mortality in a posthemorrhagic period.
(14) In addition, naloxone antagonized the effect of DAGO.
(15) In non-deprived rats given a choice of water and 0.6% saline, ICV injections of DAGO (1 and 3 nmol) significantly increased the intake of 0.6% saline; baseline water intake was minimal and was unaffected by DAGO.
(16) Receptor autoradiographic studies with 3H-DAGO were carried out in the central gray to find receptor populations differing greatly in density between HAR and LAR mice to parallel their in vivo sensitivity differences: such receptors would then be implicated in mediating in vivo analgesia.
(17) Eighty percent of [3H]-[D-Ala2,D-Leu5] enkephalin (DADLE) binding was displaced by DAGO with high affinity, indicating that a high percentage of [3H]-DADLE binding was at mu-sites.
(18) In untreated animals, morphine and the mu-selective peptide, DAGO, induced relatively long-lasting dose-related decreases in responding, whereas the non-mu agonists, DPDPE and dynorphin, induced only transient effects: response rates increased at low doses and decreased at high doses.
(20) To examine the relative roles of mu 1- and mu 2-receptors in spinal and supraspinal analgesia, we assessed the effects of naloxonazine, naloxone, beta-funaltrexamine (beta-FNA), and ICI-154,129 on tail-flick analgesia produced by intrathecal or intracerebroventricular injections of the highly mu-selective agonist, [D-Ala2,Me-Phe4,Gly(ol)5]enkephalin (DAGO; mu 1 and mu 2), [D-Ser2,Leu5]enkephalin-Thr6 (DSLET; mu 1 and delta), and the selective delta-receptor agonist [D-Pen2,D-Pen5]enkephalin (DPDPE) in mice.
