8 cze 2024 · The mu (μ) receptors are a class involved in neuromodulating different physiological functions. These receptors primarily affect nociception but also stress, temperature, respiration, endocrine activity, gastrointestinal activity, memory, mood, and motivation.
24 wrz 2018 · Mu opioid receptor agonists are among the most powerful analgesic medications but also among the most addictive. The current opioid crisis has energized a quest to develop opioid analgesics...
24 lip 2023 · The mu-1 receptor is responsible for analgesia and dependence. The mu-2 receptor is vital for euphoria, dependence, respiratory depression, miosis, decreased digestive tract motility/constipation. Mu-3 receptor causes vasodilation.
