Structure-guided design of partial agonists at an opioid receptor

Structure-guided design of partial agonists at an opioid receptor

Abstract Chronic pain and opioid overdose deaths highlight the need for non-addictive analgesics with novel mechanisms. The δ opioid receptor (δOR) is a promising target, as it lacks the respiratory depression associated with µ opioid receptor (µOR) agonists. However, early δOR full agonists caused...
