Synopsis

Twenty-six papers by leading researchers survey opioid peptides and their receptors and discuss in detail how such receptors regulate both transmitter and hormone release as well as integrative mechanisms in the central nervous system. The contributions emphasize their modulation of neural excitability and their control of cardiovascular mechanisms. They also illustrate how receptor-type selective opioids may have therapeutic implications other than the classic ones.
