1 Evidence for a differential interaction of buprenorphine with opiate receptor subtypes controlling prolactin secretion. Buprenorphine prolactin Homo sapiens
2 We studied the effects of various doses of the opiate derivative buprenorphine on serum prolactin levels and whether these effects could be counteracted by pretreatment with the opiate receptor blocker naloxone. Buprenorphine prolactin Homo sapiens
3 The administration of increasing doses of buprenorphine exerted a dual effect on serum prolactin levels. Buprenorphine prolactin Homo sapiens
4 These data are compatible with the hypothesis that buprenorphine could interfere with two different, but inter-dependent receptors: at low doses the oripavine derivative could act at one receptor site to cause an increase of serum prolactin, whereas at higher doses it could interact with a second site of lower affinity that is responsible for the inhibition of prolactin secretion.
