Grant Activity:
Endogenous opioids in drug addiction.
Purpose:
Opioid addiction is a chronic relapsing disease without treatment that target the addiction. Endogenous opioids contribute to drug relapse in people who are opioid dependent. We recently found that opioid withdrawal reduces the actions of endogenous opioids due to upregulation of their breakdown enzymes. We will now determine how this contributes to the development of neural changes that underlie opioid addiction and whether restoration of endogenous opioid signalling reduces drug addiction.
