Receptor Theories
Beckett-Casy hypothesis
* Single opioid receptor interacts with morphine
* Ionic binding region (CO2-) interacts with positive N+
* Hydrophobic binding region interacts with aromatic ring
* Hydrogen bonding region interacts with phenol
* Hollow region accepts carbon bridge (C-15 and C-16)

Receptor Theories
Drawbacks with the Beckett-Casy hypothesis
* Ethylene bridge is not important in some analgesics (fentanyl)
* No account for extra binding regions found by extension
* Does not explain different SAR results (e.g. meperidine vs morphine)
* Does not explain mixed antagonist/agonist properties

Multiple Analgesic Receptors
* Three different analgesic receptors (mu, kappa and delta)
* Binding sites for all three receptors contain ionic, hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic regions as proposed by Beckett-Casy
* Activation of all three produce analgesia, but differ in other effects
* All three interact with morphine
* Potential to target drugs selectively

Mu Receptor ()
* Morphine binds strongly
* Activation produces analgesia plus side effects(respiratory depression, euphoria, addiction)
* G-Protein coupled receptor
* -Receptor subtypes identified which may allow separation of analgesia from side effects
* -Receptors related to all sources of pain stimuli
![Page 9: OPIOID RECEPTORS](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814f35550346895dbcce25/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Kappa Receptor ()
* Morphine binds less strongly
* Activation produces analgesia plus sedation
* Insignificant side effects
* Potential target for safe analgesics (compounds acting as agonists at , antagonists at and no activity at thereceptor).
* G-Protein-coupled receptor
* Receptors related to non-thermal pain induced stimuli

Delta Receptor ()
* Morphine binds strongly
* Receptor for enkephalins
* Activation produces analgesia plus some side effects
* G-Protein-linked receptor
* receptors related to pain induced stimuli from all sources

Sigma Receptor ()
* Activated by some opoid analgesics (e.g. nalorphine)
* Non-analgesic, non-opoid receptor
* Activation produces hallucinogenic effects
* Thought to be responsible for effects of phencyclidine (PCP) (Angel Dust)

Agonists vs Antagonists
* Why should small changes in structure (e.g. N-methyl to N-allyl) change an agonist to an antagonist at a specific receptor?
* Proposed that specific receptors have additional hydrophobic
binding regions which lead to agonist or antagonist activity.
