TLDR
It is shown that this phenomenon can be reproduced and studied in COS-7 cells cotransfected with adenylyl cyclase type V and μ-opioid receptor cDNAs, and that it is not affected by the Ras dominant negative mutant N17-Ras.

Cellular and synaptic adaptations mediating opioid dependence.

TL;DR: A review on the adaptive changes in cellular and synaptic function induced by chronic morphine treatment can be found in this article, where the initial steps of opioid action are mediated through the activation of G protein-linked receptors.

Regulation and Role of Adenylyl Cyclase Isoforms

TL;DR: The present review deals with various aspects of regulations, emphasizing the role of calcium/calmodulin in activating AC1 and AC8 in the central nervous system, the potential inhibitory effect of calcium on AC5 and AC6, and the changes in the expression pattern of the isoforms during development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tissue specificity and physiological relevance of various isoforms of adenylyl cyclase.

TL;DR: The present review focuses on the potential physiological regulations involving different isoforms of adenylyl cyclase (AC), the enzymatic activity responsible for the synthesis of cAMP from ATP, emphasizing the role of Ca(2+)/calmodulin in activating AC1 and AC8 in the central nervous system, the potential inhibitory effect ofCa(2+) on AC5 and AC6, and the changes in the expression pattern of the isoforms during development.

Regulation of opioid receptor trafficking and morphine tolerance by receptor oligomerization.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that [D-Ala(2)-MePhe(4)-Gly(5)-ol] enkephalin (DAMGO) can facilitate the ability of morphine to stimulate MOR endocytosis, and hence suggest an approach for the development of opiate analogs with enhanced efficacy for the treatment of chronic pain.

Identification of a family of muscarinic acetylcholine receptor genes

TL;DR: Analysis of human and rat genomic clones indicates that there are at least four functional muscarinic receptor genes and that these genes lack introns in the coding sequence.

Cloning of a delta opioid receptor by functional expression

TL;DR: A complementary DNA clone encoding a functional delta opioid receptor has been identified and shows homology to G protein-coupled receptors, in particular the receptors for somatostatin, angiotensin, and interleukin-8.
