Novel Role of the Nociceptin System as a Regulator of Glutamate Transporter Expression in Developing Astrocytes

Our previous results showed that oligodendrocyte development is regulated by both nociceptin and its G-protein coupled receptor, the nociceptin/orphanin FQ receptor (NOPR). The present in vitro and in vivo findings show that nociceptin plays a crucial conserved role in both human and rodent brain as...
