The actions of opiates and opioid peptides upon nervous tissue are mediated by p, 6, K, and oreceptors [for reviews see Refs. l-31. The p receptor is the high affinity site at which morphine-like opiates produce analgesia and a variety of other classical opiate effects. The 6 receptor exhibits a higher affinity for the naturally occurring enkephalins (a class of shorter opioid peptides) than for morphine. The K receptor is that site at which ketocyclazocine-like opiates produce analgesia, as well as their unique ataxic and sedative effects. More recently, it has been defined as a receptor highly selective for dynorphin (a 17 amino acid opioid peptide). The areceptor mediates the psychotomimetic and stimulant effects of SKF-10,047 (N-allylnorcyclazocine) and other o opiates. These receptors exhibit rather different ligand selectivity patterns, are widely distributed in the central nervous system, and exhibit diverse neuroanatomical distributions [4-81. Findings from studies in neuronal cell lines demonstrating opiateinduced inhibition of adenylate cyclase [9, 101 and in brain and cell lines showing guanyl nucleotide modulation of agonist binding [ll-141 make it likely that the p and 6 receptors are coupled to cyclase through an inhibitory guanyl nucleotide binding protein (Ni). It is now well-established that the p, 6, and K receptors are subserved by three classes of opioid peptides, pendorphin, the enkephalins, and dynorphin-related peptides. It is, however, unknown whether these receptors represent different gene products or a single gene product which has been post-translationally modified. Moreover, the question arises as to whether they are regulated in a coordinated or an independent manner. Opiate analgesics are well-known to produce tolerance and dependence in vivo and desensitization in vitro. The observation of these phenomena has raised the question as to whether opiate receptors undergo up-or downregulation in vivo, in response to long-term administration of opiate drugs. Opiate receptor downregulation has been difficult to document. Several groups have reported that chronic administration of narcotic agonists in vivo does not produce any change in either receptor number or affinity [15-211. On the other hand, receptor downregulation has been observed in neurotumor cell
