Opioid-induced constipation (OIC) is one of the major adverse effects of opioid analgesics used by millions of patients each year. While progress has been made, there remains a significant unmet medical need in the treatment of OIC. Major gaps remain in our understanding of the role of the gastrointestinal tract and central nervous system (CNS) in precipitating OIC. For the last four decades, numerous investigations to study the sites of action of opioid analgesics have utilized peripherally acting mu-opioid receptor antagonists (PAMORAs), which have been incorrectly believed to have limited penetration across the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Several preclinical and clinical …

Man has always searched for greater understanding of himself and his environment. As a result, much scientific investigation has been directed towards the understanding of the life process. In recent years, such scientific inquiry has become increasingly focused on the fundamental biochemical events taking place at the cellular, subcellular, and molecular levels. In the course of investigation into the nature of living things, research has often necessitated the development of new techniques and investigational tools to serve as experimental systems. Very often such new methods have made possible the discovery of previously unknown processes. One very interesting and useful investigational …
