Opioid Receptors

Neuromics' Pain and Inflammation Antibodies are standard tools in many leading research labs. Our core includes high titer OR antbodies. We are proud of the roster of current publications.

Images: Immunoreactive mu-opioid receptor (mu-OR...dilution 1:1000) in the ipsilateral dorsal horn of the lumbar spinal cord at 4 weeks after topical hind paw infection with herpes simplex virus encoding the gene for the mu-OR in antisense (SGAMOR) or sense (SGMOR) direction relative to the cytomegalovirus promoter, or the viral control encoding -galactosidase (SGZ). A shows decreased mu-OR immunoreactivity in the ipsilateral L3 and L5 dorsal horns after SGAMOR infection when compared with infection with the control SGZ virus in B. C shows increased
OR immunoreactivity in ipsilateral L3 and L5 dorsal horns as compared with infection with the control SGZ virus in B.   Sweitzer et al.
