Many studies have examined the possible mechanisms underlying the development of opioid tolerance and dependence. Recently, several groups of investigators have focused on excitatory amino acid receptors, specifically N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, and related intracellular second messenger systems as possible mediators of opioid tolerance and dependence. The hypothesis proposed in this Focus article is an extension of these models of opioid tolerance and dependence, which suggests that metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) play a key role in the development of opioid tolerance and dependence. We propose that activity at group I mGluRs (and possibly also δ-opioid receptors), which are positively coupled to phosphatidylinositol (PI) hydrolysis, increases during chronic morphine administration. This ultimately leads to increased activation of protein kinase C, with concomitant phosphorylation of μ-opioid receptors (desensitizing them), and the ion channel associated with the NMDA receptor (allowing increased influx of Ca<sup>2+</sup>). We also suggest that there is a heterologous desensitization of group II and III mGluRs, which are negatively coupled to cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) production, contributing to the increased cAMP production seen during opioid dependence and withdrawal. Thus, although we agree with previous investigators about the importance of NMDA receptors, we hypothesize that mGluRs also play a critical role in the contribution of excitatory amino acids to opioid tolerance and dependence.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101001,"journal":{"name":"Pain Forum","volume":"8 1","pages":"Pages 3-13"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S1082-3174(99)70013-9","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87212682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Of the many possibilities, three factors are presented in this commentary in response to the preceding Focus article of Miaskowski and Levine. First, two previous studies reporting male-female differences in opioid consumption found such differences to occur only prior to age 60 to 65, at female menopause, suggesting that sex hormonal status should be considered in studies assessing the efficacy of opioid treatment. Second, given that sex and sex hormonal status have been shown to relate to both human and animal physiologic responses to stress and the likelihood that these responses affect nociceptive mechanisms, it is important to further explore these differences in order to optimize pain intervention strategies. Finally, it is encouraged that researchers strive to incorporate chronobiologic and sex hormonal considerations in future animal studies in an effort to more closely model clinical phenomena in exploring biobehavioral responses to stress, pain, and pain-relieving treatment modalities.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101001,"journal":{"name":"Pain Forum","volume":"8 1","pages":"Pages 45-47"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S1082-3174(99)70018-8","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74817874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The information in this paper comes predominantly from several studies on the use of patient-controlled analgesia for the management of postoperative pain. Additional information comes from our recent work that demonstrated a sexual dimorphism in oral surgery patients' responses to three different opioid analgesics that share the property of acting as agonists at the kappa-opioid receptor.
