BW373U86
BW373U86 is a drug used in scientific research, which acts as a potent partial agonist for the δ-opioid receptor. It has analgesic effects and is used in the study of opioid receptors. BW373U86 is less prone to induce tolerance and physical dependence than morphine.
Pharmacology[edit | edit source]
BW373U86 is a δ-opioid receptor partial agonist. This means it binds to and activates the δ-opioid receptor, but only has partial efficacy at the receptor relative to a full agonist. It is also a weak μ-opioid receptor agonist.
Effects[edit | edit source]
The effects of BW373U86 include analgesia, or pain relief. This is due to its activity at the δ-opioid receptor. However, unlike full agonists like morphine, BW373U86 is less likely to induce tolerance and physical dependence. This makes it a useful tool in the study of opioid receptors and the development of new pain medications.
Research[edit | edit source]
BW373U86 is used in scientific research to study the δ-opioid receptor. It is particularly useful because it is a partial agonist, which means it can be used to study the effects of partial activation of the receptor. It is also used in the development of new analgesic drugs, due to its lower risk of tolerance and dependence compared to full agonists like morphine.
