Opioid Receptors

Opioid receptor agonists and antagonists act on mu, delta and kappa receptors and the related nociceptin receptor. All four are G protein-coupled receptors that respond to endogenous peptides such as endorphins, enkephalins and dynorphins. Expression cloning of the delta opioid receptor in 1992 opened the family to molecular study. The nociceptin/orphanin FQ peptide (NOP) receptor, first called opioid receptor-like 1 (ORL1), was matched to its endogenous peptide agonist in 1995. Dynorphin A (1-13) Acetate is a peptide agonist at the kappa receptor, and JDTic is a kappa antagonist. SR-17018 acts as a mu agonist, while alvimopan is a peripherally acting opioid antagonist. MCOPPB trihydrochloride is a NOP agonist, and BAN ORL 24 blocks the same receptor.
