ω-Phonetoxins inhibit voltage-gated calcium Ca 2.2 ion channel splice isoforms of dorsal root ganglia.

Cell-specific alternative splicing of pre-mRNA generates functionally distinct voltage-gated Ca 2.2 channels. Ca 2.2 channels mediate the release of glutamate from nociceptor termini in the dorsal horn spinal cord and […]

The Effects of Chronic Naltrexone on Reinstatement of Opioid-Induced Drug-Seeking Behavior and Antinociception

Opioid addiction is a chronic relapsing disorder in which drug-seeking behavior during abstinence can be provoked by exposure to a µ-opioid receptor (MOR) agonist or opioid-associated cues. Opioid self-administration behavior […]
