The antagonistic actions ofD‐Pro2‐endomorphins on inhibition of the paw withdrawal response by endomorphins were studied in mice.D‐Pro2‐endomorphin‐1 andD‐Pro2‐endomorphin‐2, injected intrathecally (i.t.), had no significant effect on the nociceptive thermal threshold alone. WhenD‐Pro2‐endomorphin‐1 (0.05–0.1 pmol) was injected simultaneously with i.t. endomorphin‐1 (5.0 nmol) or endomorphin‐2 (5.0 nmol), antinociception induced by endomoprhin‐1 was reduced significantly, whereas endomorphin‐2‐induced antinociception was not affected byD‐Pro2‐endomorphin‐1. Antinociception induced by i.t. endomorphin‐2 (5.0 nmol) was reduced significantly by its analogue,D‐Pro2‐endomorphin‐2 (100 pmol), but not byD‐Pro2‐endomorphin‐1.D‐Pro2‐endomorphin‐1.D‐Pro2‐endomorphin‐1 also antagonized the antinociceptive effect of i.t. DAMGO, a μ‐opioid receptor agonist, whereasD‐Pro2‐endomorphin‐2 failed to reduce the effect of DAMGO. These results suggest that endomorphin analogues containingD‐Pro2are able to discriminate the antinociceptive actions of μ1‐ and μ2‐opioid receptor agonists at the spinal cord level.British Journal of Pharmacology(2002)137, 1143–1146. doi:10.1038/sj.bjp.0705047
