CRISPR/Cas9 unveils the dynamics of the endogenous µ‐opioid receptors on neuronal cells under continuous opioid stimulation

Abstract Long‐term opioid use develops tolerance and attenuates analgesic effects. Upon activation, µ‐opioid receptors (MOPs) are internalized and directed to either recycling or degradation pathway. Ligand stimulation also promotes de novo MOP synthesis. These processes collaboratively regulate MOP...
