Expression of functional kappa-opioid receptors on murine dendritic cells.

Immunology letters - 21 Oct 2002

Abstract excerpt

Endogenous and exogenous opioids are known to exert direct effects on the immune system and the expression of functional opioid receptors has been reported for several immune cell types. Since dendritic cells are important inducers and regulators of immune responses, we investigated whether murine dendritic cells express functional kappa-opioid receptors. FACScan analysis and radioligand binding studies revealed...
