Text of the abstract

Growing evidences support the contribution of peripheral opioid receptors to the total antinociception produced by systemic opioids. Peripheral antinociception has been reported to be pain model and drug physicochemical property dependent.
The present study was aimed to assess the antinociceptive effect of 14-O-methylmorphine-6-O-sulfate (14-O-MeM6SU), opioid agonist with high efficacy compared to morphine in the rat formalin test after systemic or local administration.
Method: briefly, drugs were injected subcutaneously (s.c.) or intraplantarly (i.pl.), 15 or 5 min prior to i.pl. injections of formalin, respectively. The pain events were counted for 60 min, which was further subdivided into 5 min time periods. To assess the action of the test compounds two phases were constructed, phase I (0-10min) and phase II (11-60min) as described previously (Abbott et al., 1995). In addition, “Righting reflex” method was used to determine the impact of test compounds on sleeping time induced by inhaled isoflurane. Vehicle injections were used as control. The results were considered to be statistically significant when p < 0.05.
Results: S.c. injections of 14-O-MeM6SU or morphine inhibited the pain events evoked by i.pl. formalin in both phases (I and II). Coadministered naloxone methiodide, a peripherally acting opioid antagonist inhibited the antinociceptive effect of certain s.c. 14-O-MeM6SU doses but not morphine. Ipsilateral or contralateral injections of morphine decreased the pain events in both phases. Interestingly, 14-O-MeM6SU in certain doses produced antinociception after ipsilateral but not contralateral administrations. To assess the CNS penetration of test compounds, indirect method, the prolongation of the sleeping time of isoflurane by opioids was applied. Morphine in s.c. antinociceptive doses but not 14-O-MeM6SU significantly prolonged the sleeping time.
These results indicate that MOR agonists with high efficacy and limited access to CNS may have peripheral antinociception that is of potential clinical value.
