:
To investigate the functional
role of
G protein coupled receptor kinases ( GRK ) in homologous desensitization of the
mu-opioid receptor , human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells, which express a significant level of GRK2, were stably transfected with the cDNA encoding the rat mu-opioid receptor
Bailey et al., Mol Pharmacol 2004
:
This is the first finding that morphine can induce rapid mu-opioid receptor desensitization in adult rat neurons, and because reduced protein kinase C activity in vivo attenuates morphine tolerance, we propose that
G-protein coupled receptor cross-talk and the level of protein kinase C activity may
play critical roles in the desensitization of the
mu-opioid receptor and could underlie the development of morphine tolerance
