Journal ArticleDOI
Opioid tolerance: the clinical perspective
TL;DR: Clinical aspects of tolerance and the associated phenomena of dependence, withdrawal and addiction to opioids as they apply to the practice of clinicians who manage patients with chronic malignant and non-malignant pain are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Opioidergic and dopaminergic modulation of respiration.
TL;DR: Endogenous dopaminergic modulation in the CNS and carotid bodies enhances CO2-dependent respiratory drive and depresses hypoxic drive, whereas synthetic agonists with selectivity for D1-and D4-types of receptor slow respiratory rhythm, whereas D2-selective agonists modulate acute and chronic responses to hypoxia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rostral ventrolateral medullary opioid receptor subtypes in the inhibitory effect of electroacupuncture on reflex autonomic response in cats
TL;DR: A significant portion of inhibition of the gallbladder pressor response by EA is related to activation of mu- and delta-opioid receptors in the rVLM, which appears to play a role in the EA-related modulation of cardiovascular reflex responses.
