چکیده انگلیسی
Preclinical studies report that the effective dose for morphine is approximately 2-fold higher in females than males. Following systemic administration, morphine is metabolized via Phase II glucuronidation in the liver and brain into two active metabolites: morphine-3-glucuronide (M3G) and morphine-6-glucuronide (M6G), each possessing distinct pharmacological profiles. M6G binds to μ opioid receptors and acts as a potent analgesic. In contrast, M3G binds to toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), initiating a neuroinflammatory response that directly opposes the analgesic effects of morphine and M6G. M3G serum concentrations are 2-fold higher in females than males, however, sex-specific effects of morphine metabolites on analgesia and glial activation in vivo remain unknown. The present studies test the hypothesis that increased M3G, and subsequent TLR4-mediated activation of glia, is a primary mechanism driving the attenuated response to morphine in females. We demonstrate that intra-PAG M6G results in a greater analgesic response in females than morphine alone. M6G analgesia was reversed with co-administration of (â)-naloxone, but not (+)-naloxone, suggesting that this effect is μ opioid receptor mediated. In contrast, intra-PAG administration of M3G significantly attenuated the analgesic effects of systemic morphine in males only, increasing the 50% effective dose of morphine two-fold (5.0 vs 10.3 mg/kg) and eliminating the previously observed sex difference. An increase in IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF was observed in females following intra-PAG morphine or M6G. In males, only IL-1β levels increased following morphine. Changes in cytokine levels following M3G were limited to TNF in females. Together, these data implicate sex differences in morphine metabolism, specifically M3G, as a contributing factor in the attenuated response to morphine observed in females.
