Spinal opioid-adrenergic analgesic interactions: mechanistic insights on the role of the delta opioid and the alpha2A adrenergic receptors
Opioid and α2-adrenergic receptor (α2AR) ligands are both analgesic when administered spinally and show a clinically beneficial synergistic interaction in the treatment of pain when co-administered. The µ- and δ-opioid receptors (MOR and DOR respectively) and the α2AARs have been shown to be capable...
