چکیده انگلیسی
Ultra-low doses of alpha-2 (α2)-adrenoceptor antagonists augment spinal morphine antinociception and inhibit tolerance, but the role of receptor specificity in these actions is unknown. We used the stereo-isomers of the α2 adrenoceptor antagonist, efaroxan to evaluate the effect of receptor specificity on the induction of spinal morphine tolerance and hyperalgesia. Tail flick and paw pressure tests were first used to evaluate high dose efaroxan (12.6 μg) and its stereo-isomers on clonidine analgesia in intrathecally catheterized rats. Ultra-low doses of individual isomers (1.3 ng) were then co-administered with morphine (15 μg) to determine their effects on acute antinociceptive tolerance and hyperalgesia induced by low dose spinal morphine (0.05 ng). Results demonstrate that high dose (+) efaroxan antagonized clonidine-induced antinociception, while (â) efaroxan had minimal effect. In addition, an ultra-low dose of (+) efaroxan (1.3 ng), substantially lower than required for receptor blockade, inhibited the development of acute morphine tolerance, while (â) efaroxan was less effective. Racemic (±) efaroxan effects were similar to those of (+) efaroxan. Furthermore, low dose morphine (0.05 ng) produced sustained hyperalgesia in the tail flick test and this was blocked by co-injection of (+) but not (â) efaroxan (1.3 ng). Given the isomer-specific efaroxan effects and their different receptor potencies, we suggest that inhibition of opioid tolerance by ultra-low dose efaroxan involves a specific interaction with spinal α2-adrenoceptors in this model. Likewise, inhibitory effects of adrenoceptor antagonists on morphine tolerance may be due to blockade of opioid-induced hyperalgesia.
