The goal of this study was to determine if mu agonist treatment induced ERK activation acutely or after withdrawal of chronic opioids in one glial and three neuronal cell lines. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Our results provide evidence that receptor internalization is not an obligatory requirement for MAPK activation by mu and delta opioid receptors. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Additionally, a pronounced instatement of morphine-induced MAPK activation was observed in CA3 hippocampal processes. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Activation of MAPK was increased in the anterior cingulate (Acc), somato-sensory and association cortices, and locus ceruleus (LC). | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Locomotor sensitization resulted in sensitization to morphine-induced MAPK activation in the posterior basolateral amygdala. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
On the other hand, peripheral inflammation and axotomy also induces p38 MAPK activation in DRG neurons. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
On the other hand, axotomy induced the activation of ERK mainly in medium-and large-sized DRG neurons and in satellite glial cells. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The characterization of cannabinoid- and opioid-induced ERK activation in these two cell-lines enables future studies into possible interactions between these two groups of drugs at the level of MAPK signaling. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
These findings suggest that opioids may acutely activate ERK in non-neuronal cells, and that the acute ERK activation observed in some brain regions during opioid withdrawal in vivo might be mediated by indirect effects on neuronal cells. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
mu and delta-opioid receptor agonists induce mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation in the absence of receptor internalization. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
mu and delta-opioid receptor agonists induce mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation in the absence of receptor internalization. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Here we report that endocytosis of mu and delta opioid receptors is not required for efficient ligand-induced activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
We investigated the hypotheses that these drugs (A) are less neurotoxic than the prototype local anesthetic, lidocaine (B) are selectively toxic for subcategories of dorsal root ganglion neurons and (C) induce activation of either p38 MAPK or related enzymes, such as the c-jun terminal N-kinase (JNK) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK). | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), a mitogen activated-protein kinase (MAPK), in dorsal horn neurons contributes to inflammatory pain by transcription-dependent and -independent means. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The principal finding of these studies is demonstration that the activation of CaMKII and PKC is required for ERK stimulation following acute opioid treatment while in a chronic morphine treatment and withdrawal, the up-regulation of PKC and CaMKII pathways seems to be engaged in the ERK inhibition. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
We also tested whether the increased behavioral response to DHPG following inflammation may be explained by enhanced coupling of the group I mGluRs to ERK activation. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Arrestins also link GPCRs to several signalling pathways, including activation of the non-receptor tyrosine kinase SRC and mitogen-activated protein kinase. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Activation of the delta-, mu-, and kappa-receptors by agonists induced a rapid and transient increase in MAPK activity accompanied by reduced electrophoretic mobility of the 42-kDa isoform of MAPK (p42), probably owing to phosphorylation. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The intrathecal application of nerve growth factor (NGF) induced an increase in the number of p-ERK-and BDNF-labeled cells, mainly small neurons, and the application of anti-NGF induced an increase in p-ERK and BDNF in some medium-to-large-diameter DRG neurons. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The 5-HT 1E/1F receptor agonist BRL54443 induced contraction, but this was abolished by the 5-HT 2A/2C receptor antagonist ketanserin (10 nM ); contraction was not observed with a different 5-HT 1F receptor agonist, LY344864. 5-HT and alpha-methyl-5-HT produced a concentration-dependent increase in Erk MAPK activity in cultured aortic smooth muscle cells and in aorta contracted with these agonists. | |||||||||||||||
