Fentanyl-Induced Respiratory Depression and Locomotor Hyperactivity Are Mediated by μ-Opioid Receptors Expressed in Somatostatin-Negative Neurons

Opioid drugs are widely used as analgesics but cause respiratory depression, a potentially lethal side effect with overdose, by acting on μ-opioid receptors (MORs) expressed in brainstem regions involved in the control of breathing. Although many brainstem regions have been shown to regulate opioid-...
