They are designed to treat a host of diseases and ailments ranging from heart disease and diabetes to allergies and strep throat. But, of all these drugs, only two (methadone and naltrexone) are available to treat narcotic addiction. The cocaine epidemic of the last few years, coupled with the spread of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) in the drug-abusing population, make the development of effective pharmaco- logical treatments for drug addiction more critical than ever before. While the prevalence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) seropositivity in the United States is highest for homosexual males (ranging from 20 per- cent to 70 percent), the incidence of seropositivity among intravenous (IV) drug abusers may be even greater, with prevalence in certain areas reaching 75 percent. Of all seropositives, IV drug abusers are generally regarded as posing the most substantial risk of spreading the disease to heterosexuals, with the risk being greater in urban areas. Also at risk are infants born to parents who are IV drug users. Current statistics suggest that one out of two children born to seropositive women develop and almost certainly die of AIDS before the age of 5. Therefore, does the high rate of seropreva- lence among drug abusers reflect some factor predisposing them to AIDS? Both clinical and preclinical studies suggest that chronic morphine treatment depresses the immune function, predisposing an individual to higher inci- dence of infections. By altering immunocompetence, abused drugs, such as morphine, heroin, and possibly cocaine, represent a potential source of immunodeficiency independent of HIV infection, thus making the addicts susceptible to HIV and the development of AIDS. The first direct evidence that heroin addiction may influence the immune system came from the observation that lymphocyte mitogenesis was de- pressed in heroin addicts. Opiate addiction produced a significant depres- sion in the absolute number of T lymphocytes in peripheral blood. The immune modulatory capacity of the opioid receptor agonist morphine led in- vestigators to hypothesize the existence of opioid receptors on cells of the 1 immune system. Recent studies have now identified such receptors. Bind- ing sites for both classical opioids, i.e., naloxone-reversible agonists, and nonclassical opioids, insensitive to naloxone reversibility, have been detected on lymphocytes. In addition, recent observations describing the production of opioid peptides by cells of the immune system have led to the hypothesis of bidirectional pathways shared between the immune and neurcendocrine systems based on the commonality of ligands and receptors. The intention of this technical review was to bring together a group of internationally recognized medicinal chemists, pharmacologists, and immu- nologists working on both drug addiction and AIDS to discuss recent advances. Researchers from areas of pharmacology, medicinal chemistry, and immunology presented their work, interacted, and discussed several new ideas as well as areas of emphasis for future research. It is hoped that investigations of the effects of drug abuse on the immune system may facilitate our understanding of the basic mechanisms underlying the AIDS syndrome. This in turn will help us to determine the feasibility of treatment modalities for AIDS and AIDS-related syndromes.

Portoghese INTRODUCTION Significant advances in opioid research rely heavily on the use of selective ligands as tools. Although the opioid antagonists naloxone 1 and naltrexone 2 have been employed extensively for this purpose (Sawynok et al. 1979; Gold et al. 1982) their usefulness in sorting out the effects mediated by different opioid receptor types is limited because they are not highly selec- tive. The multiplicity of opioid receptors, their varied distribution in neural tissue, and the array of physiologic and pharmacologic effects produced by endogenous and exogenous opioid ligands have created a need for highly selective antagonists for use as research tools (Herz 1987). In this regard, the opioid antagonist should be potent, highly selective, and be useful both in vitro and in vivo for optimal utility as receptor probes. Also, such an- tagonists should be relatively stable to enzymatic degradation and be capable of penetrating the central nervous system (CNS). All of these properties are desirable in the same molecule so that the in vivo pharmacology can be more reliably correlated with in vitro studies. This chapter reviews two convergent variations of the bivalent ligand approach (Portoghese 1987) that have been employed in the design of highly selective opioid antagonists.

Prisinzano Date approved: July 18, 2012 ii ABSTRACT Kappa opioid (KOP) receptors have been suggested as an alternative target to the mu opioid (MOP) receptor for the treatment of pain because KOP activation is associated with fewer negative side-effects (respiratory depression, constipation, tolerance, and dependence). The KOP receptor has also been implicated in several abuse-related effects in the central nervous system (CNS). KOP ligands have been investigated as pharmacotherapies for drug abuse; KOP agonists have been shown to modulate dopamine concentrations in the CNS as well as attenuate the self-administration of cocaine in a variety of species, and KOP antagonists have potential in the treatment of relapse. One drawback of current opioid ligand investigation is that many compounds are based on the morphine scaffold and thus have similar properties, both positive and negative, to the parent molecule. Thus there is increasing need to discover new chemical scaffolds with opioid receptor activity.

The present study characterizes opioid receptors in an immortalized myocyte cell line, HL-1. Displacement of [3H]bremazocine by selective ligands for the mu (), delta (), and kappa () receptors revealed that only the -selective ligands could fully displace specific [3H]bremazocine binding, indicating the presence of only the -receptor in these cells. Saturation binding studies with the -antagonist naltrindole 3 afforded a Bmax of 32 fmols/mg protein and a KD value for [ H]naltrindole of 0.46 n. The binding affinities of various ligands for the receptor in HL-1 cell membranes obtained from competition binding assays were similar to those obtained using membranes from a neuroblastoma×glioma cell line, NG108-15.

Abstract The impact that β-arrestin proteins have on G-protein-coupled receptor trafficking, signaling and physiological behavior has gained much appreciation over the past decade. A number of studies have attributed the side effects associated with the use of naturally occurring and synthetic opioids, such as respiratory depression and constipation, to excessive recruitment of β-arrestin.
