Rational design of dynorphin A analogues with delta-receptor selectivity and antagonism for delta- and kappa-receptors (2024)

Abstract

Substitution of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid (Tic) in place of Gly2 in dynorphin A-(1-13)-NH2 and -(1-11)-NH2 (DYN) analogues (1 and 2) decreased the affinity to the kappa, delta, and mu receptors, and kappa selectivity. The analogue [D-Ala2, des-Gly3]DYN (4), a chimera between deltorphin/dermorphin N-terminal tripeptide and DYN, was virtually inactive for kappa-sites while the affinities for delta- and mu-receptors remained essentially unchanged. The doubly substituted analogue [2',6'-dimethyl-L-tyrosine (Dmt1)-Tic2]DYN (3) exhibited high delta-affinity (Ki=0.39 nM) while mu- and kappa-affinities were only an order of magnitude less (4-5 nM). Bioactivity of [Tic2]DYN peptides (1-3) on guinea-pig ileum and rabbit jejunum revealed potent delta- and kappa-antagonism, while the delta agonist potency of 4 was comparable to DYN. Thus, conversion from a kappa-agonist to antagonist occurred with the inclusion of Tic into DYN analogues, similar to the appearance of antagonist properties with delta- and mu-opioid agonists containing a Tic2 residue.

FAQs

What is the dynorphin kappa opioid receptor system? ›

The Dynorphin (Dyn)/kappa opioid receptor (KOR) system has been implicated in the processing of emotional and stress-related information and is expressed in brain areas involved in stress and motivation. Dysregulation of the Dyn/KOR system has also been implicated in various neuropsychiatric disorders.

What are the Delta and Kappa receptors? ›

Similar to mu opioid receptors, kappa and delta opioid receptors reside in the periphery, the dorsal root ganglion, the spinal cord, and in supraspinal regions associated with pain modulation. Both delta and kappa opioid agonists have been shown to activate pain inhibitory pathways in the central nervous system.

What is the role of dynorphin in pain? ›

As previously mentioned, the endogenous opioid dynorphin plays a key role in the centralization of pain. Dynorphin is cleaved from proenkephalin-B and is plentiful in the dorsal horn, primarily in laminae I and V, the origination sites for thalamic projection neurons [12].

Where is dynorphin found? ›

In the adult brain, dynorphin is found in various regions. Relatively high levels of dynorphin were measured in the amygdala, entorhinal cortex, dentate gyrus, hypothalamus, midbrain, striatum, hippocampus, and medulla-pons (Fallon and Leslie, 1986; Goldstein and Ghazarossian, 1980; Schwarzer, 2009).

How does dynorphin make you feel? ›

8 Dynorphins A (1–13) and (1–12) Dynorphins (endogenous opioid neuropeptides) are the ACE2 substrates with pain relieving effects [169,170]. Dynorphins binds to κ-opioid receptors and act as inhibitory neurotransmitters and induce pain desensitization [171].

What triggers dynorphin release? ›

Stress is most often associated with aversive states. It rapidly induces the release of hormones and neuropeptides including dynorphin, which activates kappa opioid receptors (KORs) in the central and peripheral nervous systems.

What is the purpose of the kappa opioid receptor? ›

Kappa opioid receptor

The kappa receptor mediates stress response and stress increases drug craving and relapse risk. Variations in the genes encoding the kappa opioid receptor are associated with the risk for alcohol dependence [59], opioid addiction [60,61], and schizophrenia [62].

What are the effects of delta opioid receptors? ›

In the endosome, receptors signal for prolonged periods, which means delta opioid receptors can inhibit pain for longer stretches. This sustained decrease in excitability (a measurement of pain) was found when the delta opioid receptors were activated in the inflammatory cells studied.

Does kappa receptor cause euphoria? ›

The known kappa opioid receptor drugs do not produce the same euphoria as traditional opioid drugs, making these kappa opioid receptor drugs less likely to be addictive.

What does dynorphins control? ›

Dynorphin is a neuropeptide involved in pain, addiction and mood regulation. It exerts its activity by binding to the kappa opioid receptor (KOP) which belongs to the large family of G protein-coupled receptors.

How do you trigger dynorphin? ›

If you want to increase the amount of dynorphins you're producing, a good way to go about it is to shock/stress your body by repeatedly exposing it to significant temperature changes. Here are a few good ways to do it : Hard workouts. 20–30 min sauna sessions (175F-195F)

What would an antagonist of dynorphin do? ›

Opioid antagonists, such as naloxone, can reverse the effects of elevated dynorphin. This inhibition is especially strong in obese animals or animals that have access to particularly appealing food. Inui et al. found that administering dynorphin to dogs increased both their food and water intake.

What is the gene for dynorphin? ›

PDYN Gene - Prodynorphin

The protein encoded by this gene is a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to form the secreted opioid peptides beta-neoendorphin, dynorphin, leu-enkephalin, rimorphin, and leumorphin.

What is the precursor of dynorphin? ›

Dynorphins (DYNs) are opioid peptides widely distributed in several areas of CNS including the spinal cord, and derived from the precursor protein prodynorphin. Cleavage of prodynorphin generates DYN A, DYN B, and α/β-neo-endorphin (Day et al., 1998).

What is the dynorphin kappa opioid receptor? ›

The dynorphin/kappa opioid receptor (KOR) system is implicated in the "dark side" of addiction, in which stress exacerbates maladaptive responses to drug and alcohol exposure. For example, acute stress and acute ethanol exposure result in an elevation in dynorphin, the KOR endogenous ligand.

What is the function of the kappa opioid receptor? ›

Kappa receptors (KOR) bind to dynorphin A and B (Prodynorphin as the precursor). They provide analgesia, diuresis, and dysphoria. Delta receptors (DOR) bind to enkephalins (precursor being Proenkephalin). They play a role in analgesia and reduction in gastric motility.

What is the role of the dynorphin Kappa opioid receptor system in the actions of alcohol? ›

Recent evidence suggests that the dynorphin (DYN)/kappa opioid receptor (KOR) system mediates the negative affective states associated with alcohol withdrawal.

What does Dynorphins control? ›

Dynorphin is a neuropeptide involved in pain, addiction and mood regulation. It exerts its activity by binding to the kappa opioid receptor (KOP) which belongs to the large family of G protein-coupled receptors.

What are the 3 types of opioid receptors? ›

Opioids can act presynaptically by inhibiting neurotransmitter release of excitatory neurotransmitters. They can also act postsynaptically by hyperpolarization of the cell through inhibition of potassium conductance. The three main opioid receptors include mu (μ), delta (δ), and kappa (κ) with various subtypes of each.
