The effect of nociceptin, an endogenous ligand for a unique member of the cloned opioid receptor family ORL1-receptor, on tonic activity of neurons in the preoptic area/anterior hypothalamus (PO/AH) has been examined in rat brain slices using extracellular recordings. Nociceptin (1, 10 and 100 nM) decreased dose-dependently tonic activity of PO/AH neurons. This effect was not significantly different from the effect of [Phe1Ψ (CH2–NH) Gly2]-nociceptin-(1–13)-NH2(1, 10 and 100 nM), recently proposed as a selective antagonist of the nociceptin receptor. Thus, [Phe1Ψ (CH2–NH) Gly2]-nociceptin-(1–13)-NH2appears to be an agonist rather than an antagonist of nociceptin (ORL1) receptor in rat PO/AH neurons. However, there was neither antagonism nor additive synergism when nociceptin and [Phe1Ψ (CH2–NH) Gly2]-nociceptin-(1–13)-NH2were applied simultaneously at equimolar concentrations. The effect of nociceptin on tonic activity of rat PO/AH neurons was not blocked by selective μ-, κ- and δ-opioid receptor antagonists (d-Phe-Cys-Tyr-d-Trp-Orn-Thr-Pen-Thr-NH2(CTOP), nor-binaltorphimine and naltrindol, respectively) at 10 times higher concentrations than nociceptin. These data suggest that the effect of nociceptin on tonic activity of PO/AH neurons is not due to an action on μ-, κ-, or δ-opioid receptors but results from a specific effect on the ORL1-receptor.
