Autoradiographic study of mu and delta opioid binding sites and neutral endopeptidase-24.11 in rat after dorsal root rhizotomy
Abstract
Highly selective tritiated ligands and autoradiography have been used to study mu and delta binding sites as well as neutral endopeptidase-24.11 in the dorsal horn of the rat spinal cord. Two weeks and 4 months after dorsal root rhizotomy, both opioid binding sites were dramatically decreased (congruent to 60%). In contrast, the level of neutral endopeptidase-24.11 remained unaltered.
