Differential interaction patterns of opioid analgesics with µ opioid receptors correlate with ligand-specific voltage sensitivity
The µ opioid receptor (MOR) is the key target for analgesia, but the application of opioids is accompanied by several issues. There is a wide range of opioid analgesics, differing in their chemical structure and their properties of receptor activation and subsequent effects. A better understanding o...
