Core Tip |
Previous studies have showed that morphine can cause gastrointestinal disorders via ?-opioid receptor (MOR). However, the regulatory mechanisms of MOR relating to gastrointestinal activity remain unclear. Endomorphin-2 (EM-2) is the endogenous ligand for the MOR. The distribution of EM-immunoreactive (IR) structures is generally similar to that of the MOR in the nervous system, but not the submucosal plexus of the enteric nervous system. This study demonstrates for the first time that EM-2-IR neurons are present in the submucosal plexus of the rat colon, and EM-2 co-localized with several neurochemical makers in distinct populations of submucosal neurons. |
