β-Arrestin-2 knockout prevents development of cellular μ-opioid receptor tolerance but does not affect opioid-withdrawal-related adaptations in single PAG neurons

Connor, Mark; Bagley, Elena E.; Chieng, Billy C.; Christie, Macdonald J. (Wiley, 2015-01)

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Tolerance to the behavioural effects of morphine is blunted in β-arrestin-2 knockout mice, but opioid withdrawal is largely unaffected. The cellular mechanisms of tolerance have been studied in ...
