Immune Response of Submissive and Aggressive Mice under Conditions of Opioid Receptor Activation

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Experiments on the model of paired sensory contact demonstrated that stimulation of immune response in aggressive CBA and C57Bl/6J mice with 10- and 20-day experience of victories, respectively, was prevented by selective δ2-opioid receptor agonists DSLET and κ-opioid receptor agonists rimorphin in a dose of 100 μg/kg. In C57Bl/6J mice with depression-like behavior, normalization (but not suppression) of the immune response under conditions of μ-opioid receptor stimulation (100 μg/kg) was observed. Selective modulation of activity of a certain type of opioid receptors can normalize the immune function modifi ed during the formation of a certain behavioral type.
