Data provided by the National Library of Medicine- Absence of G-protein activation by mu-opioid receptor agonists in the spinal cord of mu-opioid receptor knockout mice.
- Visceral chemical nociception in mice lacking mu-opioid receptors: effects of morphine, SNC80 and U-50,488.
- The mu opiate receptor as a candidate gene for pain: polymorphisms, variations in expression, nociception, and opiate responses.
- Dopamine transporter: transmembrane phenylalanine mutations can selectively influence dopamine uptake and cocaine analog recognition.
- Heterozygous VMAT2 knockout mice display prolonged QT intervals: possible contributions to sudden death.
- Cocaine reward and MPTP toxicity: alteration by regional variant dopamine transporter overexpression.
- The mu-opioid receptor gene-dose dependent reductions in G-protein activation in the pons/medulla and antinociception induced by endomorphins in mu-opioid receptor knockout mice.
- Dopamine transporter proline mutations influence dopamine uptake, cocaine analog recognition, and expression.
- Dopamine transporter transmembrane domain polar mutants: DeltaG and DeltaDeltaG values implicate regions important for transporter functions.
- Stress-induced analgesia in mu-opioid receptor knockout mice reveals normal function of the delta-opioid receptor system.
- Human dopamine transporter gene: coding region conservation among normal, Tourette's disorder, alcohol dependence and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder populations.
- Long forms of the dopamine receptor (DRD4) gene VNTR are more prevalent in substance abusers: no interaction with functional alleles of the catechol-o-methyltransferase (COMT) gene.
- Dopamine transporter tryptophan mutants highlight candidate dopamine- and cocaine-selective domains.
- The VMAT2 gene in mice and humans: amphetamine responses, locomotion, cardiac arrhythmias, aging, and vulnerability to dopaminergic toxins.
- Ethanol consumption and reward are decreased in mu-opiate receptor knockout mice.
