Current research in pathophysiology of opioid-induced respiratory depression, neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome, and neonatal antidepressant exposure syndrome

Respiratory depression (RD) is the primary cause of death due to opioids. Opioids bind to mu (µ)-opioid receptors (MORs) encoded by the MOR gene Oprm1, widely expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems including centers that modulate breathing.
