1 Intracellular calcium ion was imaged to verify PA on mu-opioid receptor (MOR). patchouli alcohol opioid receptor, mu 1 Mus musculus
2 Cellular experiments were carried out to find out COX2 and MOR expression induced by PA. patchouli alcohol opioid receptor, mu 1 Mus musculus
3 PA also up-regulated COX2 mRNA and protein (P<0.05) with a down-regulation of MOR (P<0.05) both in in vivo and in vitro experiments, which devote to the analgesic effect of PA. patchouli alcohol opioid receptor, mu 1 Mus musculus
4 PA showed the characters of enhancing the MOR expression and reducing the intracellular calcium ion similar to opioid effect. patchouli alcohol opioid receptor, mu 1 Mus musculus
5 CONCLUSIONS: Both COX2 and MOR are involved in the mechanism of PA"s anti-nociceptive effect, and the up-regulation of the receptor expression and the inhibition of intracellular calcium are a new perspective to PA"s effect on MOR. patchouli alcohol opioid receptor, mu 1 Mus musculus
6 CONCLUSIONS: Both COX2 and MOR are involved in the mechanism of PA"s anti-nociceptive effect, and the up-regulation of the receptor expression and the inhibition of intracellular calcium are a new perspective to PA"s effect on MOR. patchouli alcohol opioid receptor, mu 1 Mus musculus
