Naltrexone (15 mg) or naloxonazine (15 mg) completely blocked the effects of both EM-1 and EM-2. In a conditioned place preference test, EM-2 at the dose of 30 mg has been shown to produce positive rewarding effects whereas EM-1 or EM-2 at the dose of 15 mg had no effect. EM-2 (30 mg) also increased the extracellular concentration of (DOPAC + HVA) at nucleus accumbens shell, but not EM-1 (15 mg). The present results suggest that the endomorphin-1 is more potent than endophin-2 in anti-neuropathic pain by supraspinal administration. These anti-allodynia effects of endomorphins are possible via m1-opioid receptors. In the conditioned place preference (CPP) test, EM-1 (15mg) and EM-2 (15 mg) did not show any rewarding effect. However, EM-2 produced a significant rewarding effect at the higher dose of 30 mg (i.c.v.). In summary, EM-1 (15 mg) has good supraspinal anti-allodynic effect through the activation of m1-opioid receptors and may be with less tendency to induce psychological dependence. In contrast, EM-2 may be less effective in anti-allodynia and more likely to produce psychological dependence. Tao PL 陶 寶 綠 2002 學位論文 ; thesis 0 zh-TW |

In a neuropathic pain model (sciatic nerve crushing in rats), EM-1 and EM-2 (15 mg, i.c.v.) showed significant effects in the cold-water allodynia test. EM-1 is more potent than EM-2. Naltrexone (15 mg) or naloxonazine (15 mg) completely blocked the effects of both EM-1 and EM-2.
