Heterodimeric opioid G-protein coupled receptors

   
   

Opioid receptors form functional heterodimers with each other and with other G-protein coupled receptors, such as dopamine receptors, adrenergic receptors, or chemokine receptors. These receptors can be exploited for high throughput screening of compounds to identify heterodimer opioid receptor modulators (agonists and antagonists). The invention also relates to identification of novel heterodimer receptor ligands and synergistic compositions, which can provide strategies for analgesia, narcotic addiction, hypertension, HIV infection, and immune system function.

Opioid de receptoren vormen functionele heterodimers met elkaar en met andere g-Eiwit gekoppelde receptoren, zoals dopamine receptoren, adrenergic receptoren, of chemokinereceptoren. Deze receptoren kunnen voor hoog productieonderzoek van samenstellingen worden geƫxploiteerd om heterodimer opioid receptormodulators (agonists en antagonisten) te identificeren. De uitvinding heeft ook op identificatie van nieuwe heterodimerreceptor ligands en synergistic samenstellingen betrekking, die strategieƫn voor analgesia, verdovende verslaving, hypertensie, HIV besmetting, en immuun systeemfunctie kunnen verstrekken.
