Chronic inflammatory injury results in increased coupling of delta opioid receptors to voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels

BACKGROUND: Opioid receptors regulate a diverse array of physiological functions. Mu opioid receptor agonists are well-known analgesics for treating acute pain. In contrast, animal models suggest that chronic pain is more effectively relieved by delta opioid receptor agonists. A number of studies ha...
