BNTX
BNTX (7-Benzylidenenaltrexone) is a highly selective δ1 opioid receptor antagonist. BNTX selectively antagonizes the antinociceptive activity mediated by spinal δ1 opioid receptors, and does not alter the antinociceptive effects mediated by δ2, μ or κ opioid receptors at selective doses.

Animal Model:ND4 Swiss-Webster (male, 20-25 g)[1]
-
Dosage:1.3 μmol/kg (s.c. pretreatment); 1 pmole/mouse (i.t. pretreatment)
-
Administration:s.c.; single dose, 30 minutes prior to agonist assay; i.t.; single dose, 10 minutes prior to agonist assay
-
Result:Increased the antinociceptive ED50 of δ1 agonist DPDPE (i.t.) from 6.3 to 36.1 nmol/mouse at 1.3 μmol/kg s.c. dose.
Did not significantly alter the antinociceptive ED50 of δ2 agonist DELT II (i.t.), μ agonists DAMGO and morphine (i.t.), or κ agonist U-50,488H (i.t.), at 1.3 μmol/kg s.c. dose.
Increased the antinociceptive ED50 of DPDPE (i.t.) from 6.3 to 25.5 nmol/mouse at 1 pmole/mouse i.t. dose.
Did not significantly alter the antinociceptive ED50 of DELT II (i.t.), μ agonist DAMGO (i.t.), or κ agonist U-50,488H (i.t.), at 1 pmole/mouse i.t. dose.
