Journal ArticleDOI

Binaltorphimine and nor-binaltorphimine, potent and selective k-opioid receptor antagonists

TL;DR: BNI and nor-BNI represent the first highly selective kappa opioids receptor antagonists and should be of great utility as molecular probes for identifying the interaction of agonist ligands with kappa opioid receptors in vitro and in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Binaltorphimine-related bivalent ligands and their kappa opioid receptor antagonist selectivity.

TL;DR: The pharmacologic data suggest that only one antagonist pharmacophore may be required for kappa selectivity and that the other morphinan portion of the molecule confers selectivity by interacting with a unique subsite proximal to the antagonist pharmacphore recognition locus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Superpotent [Dmt1]Dermorphin Tetrapeptides Containing the 4-Aminotetrahydro-2-benzazepin-3-one Scaffold with Mixed μ/δ Opioid Receptor Agonistic Properties

TL;DR: Functional electrophysiological in vitro assays using primary cortical and spinal cord networks showed that the most potent ligand H-Dmt-NMe-d-Ala-Aba-Gly-NH(2) (BVD03) displayed mixed μ/δ opioid agonist properties with picomolar functional potencies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Investigation of the structural requirements for the kappa-selective opioid receptor antagonist, 6 beta,6 beta'-[ethylenebis(oxyethyleneimino)]bis[17-(cyclopropylmethyl)- 4,5 alpha-epoxymorphinan-3,14-diol] (TENA).

TL;DR: The results obtained with 2 are consistent with the requirement of a second opiate pharmacophore (rather than a second basic nitrogen in the spacer) for the kappa antagonist activity of TENA, but the potent agonism associated with these monomers do not allow a firm conclusion in this regard.
