【 摘 要 】

Involvement of the kappa opioid receptor in the regulation of epileptic activity was studied in WAG/Rij rats, a genetic model of absence epilepsy, I.c.v. administration of the kappa agonists U50,488H {trans-3,4-dichloro-N-methyl-N-[2-(1-pyrrolidynyl)-cyclohexyl]-benzeneacetamide}, U69,593 (5 alpha,7 alpha,8 beta)-(-)-N-methyl-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-1-oxaspiro(4,5)dec-8-yl)benzeneacetamide) or PD117,302 ((+/-)-trans-N-methyl-N-[2-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-cyclohexyl]benzo[b]thiophene-4-acetamide), 50 and 150 mu g/5 mu l each, dose-dependently decreased the number and mean duration of spike wave discharges (SWD). Peripheral administration of U50,488H (10 and 30 mg/kg s.c.) also attenuated the seizure activity in this model. The specific kappa opioid receptor antagonist nor-binaltorphimine (Nor-BNI, 10 mu g/5 mu l i.c.v., 18 h before EEG registration) moderately increased the number of SWD, which suggests that endogenous opioids acting through a receptors may tonically inhibit the seizure activity in these rats. In addition, the enhancement of an absence-like seizure activity induced by the specific mu opioid receptor agonist D-Ala(2)-N-methyl-Phe(4)-Gly(5)-ol-enkephalin (DAMGO, 0.7 mu g/5 mu l i.c.v.) was also attenuated in rats pretreated with U50,488H, U69,593 or PD117,302. These data indicate that activation of the kappa opioid receptor exerts an inhibitory effect on absence-like seizure activity in WAG/Rij rats.
