Abstract
Opioid receptors belong to the class A G-protein-coupled receptors and are activated by alkaloid opiates such as morphine, and endogenous ligands such as endorphins and enkephalins. Opioid receptors are widely distributed in the human body and are involved in numerous physiological processes through three major classical opioid receptor subtypes; the mu, delta and kappa along with a lesser characterized subtype, opioid receptor-like (ORL1). Opioids are the most potent analgesics and have been extensively used as a therapeutic drug for the treatment of pain and related disorders. Chronic administration of clinically used opioids is associated with adverse effects such as drug tolerance, addiction and constipation. Several investigations attempted to identify the molecular signaling networks associated with endogenous as well as synthetic opiates, however, there is a paucity of a cumulative depiction of these signaling events. Here, we report a systemic collection of downstream molecules pertaining to four subtypes of opioid receptors (MOR, KOR, DOR and ORL1) in the form of a signaling pathway map. We manually curated reactions induced by the activation of opioid receptors from the literature into five categories- molecular association, activation/inhibition, catalysis, transport, and gene regulation. This led to a dataset of 180 molecules, which is collectively represented in the opioid receptor signaling network following NetPath criteria. We believe that the public availability of an opioid receptor signaling pathway map can accelerate biomedical research in this area because of its high therapeutic significance. The opioid receptors signaling pathway map is uploaded to a freely available web resource, WikiPathways enabling ease of access ( https://www.wikipathways.org/index.php/Pathway:WP5093 ).

Exchange factor directly activated by cAMP-PKCε signalling mediates chronic morphine-induced expression of purine P2X3 receptor in rat dorsal root ganglia. Br J Pharmacol 2018; 175:1760-1769.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The P2X3 receptor is a major receptor in the processing of nociceptive information in dorsal root ganglia. We investigated the role of the P2X3 receptor and the detailed mechanisms underlying chronic morphine-induced analgesic tolerance in rats. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Repeated i.t. morphine treatment was used to induce anti-nociceptive tolerance. The expression of spinal P2X3 receptor, phosphorylated PKCε and exchange factor directly activated by cAMP (Epac) were evaluated. Effects of A-317491 (P2X3 antagonist), ε-V1-2 (PKCε inhibitor) and ESI-09 (Epac inhibitor) on mechanical pain thresholds and tail-flick latency after chronic morphine treatment were determined. Co-localization of P2X3 receptor with NeuNs (marker of neuron), IB4 (marker of small DRG neurons), peripherin, PKCε and Epac were performed by double immunofluorescence staining. KEY RESULTS Chronic morphine time-dependently increased the expression of P2X3 receptor, phosphorylated PKCε and Epac in DRGs. ε-V1-2 prevented chronic morphine-induced expression of P2X3 receptor. ESI-09 decreased the phosphorylation of PKCε and up-regulated expression of Epac after chronic morphine exposure. Mechanical pain thresholds and tail-flick latency showed that A317491, ε-V1-2 and ESI-09 significantly attenuated the loss of morphine's analgesic potency. Morphine-induced P2X3 receptor expression mainly occurred in neurons staining for IB4 and peripherin. Co-localization of P2X3 receptor with PKCε and Epac was demonstrated in the same neurons. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Chronic morphine exposure increased the expression of P2X3 receptor, and i.t. P2X3 receptor antagonists attenuated the loss of morphine's analgesic effect. Inhibiting Epac/PKCε signalling was shown to play a significant inhibitory role in chronic morphine-induced P2X3 receptor expression and attenuate morphine-induced tolerance.

Abstract
Calcineurin is an essential Ca2+-dependent phosphatase. Increased calcineurin activity is associated with α-synuclein (α-syn) toxicity, a protein implicated in Parkinson's Disease (PD) and other neurodegenerative diseases. Calcineurin can be inhibited with Tacrolimus through the recruitment and inhibition of the 12-kDa cis-trans proline isomerase FK506-binding protein (FKBP12). Whether calcineurin/FKBP12 represents a native physiologically relevant assembly that occurs in the absence of pharmacological perturbation has remained elusive. We leveraged α-syn as a model to interrogate whether FKBP12 plays a role in regulating calcineurin activity in the absence of Tacrolimus. We show that FKBP12 profoundly affects the calcineurin-dependent phosphoproteome, promoting the dephosphorylation of a subset of proteins that contributes to α-syn toxicity. Using a rat model of PD, partial elimination of the functional interaction between FKBP12 and calcineurin, with low doses of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved compound Tacrolimus, blocks calcineurin's activity toward those proteins and protects against the toxic hallmarks of α-syn pathology. Thus, FKBP12 can endogenously regulate calcineurin activity with therapeutic implications for the treatment of PD.

Abstract
AIMS Mechanistic/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activation by μ-opioid receptor (OPRM1) participates in antinociceptive tolerance, hyperalgesia, and physical dependence. Our previous study also showed that mTOR activation by OPRM1 could attenuate β amyloid oligomers-induced neurotoxicity. OPRM1 is demonstrated to interact with FK506-binding protein 12 (FKBP12). It is our great interest to investigate whether OPRM1-mediated mTOR signaling is related to receptor-FKBP12 association. METHODS The activities of mTOR and its downstream effector p70 S6K were measured by immunoblotting their phosphorylation status. The interaction of receptor with mTOR was detected by co-immunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence. RESULTS OPRM1 activation by morphine-induced time-dependent mTOR activation. PI3K-specific inhibitor LY294002 only blocked the late phase of mTOR activation. However, morphine-induced mTOR activation was totally blocked at all time points in cells expressing FKBP12 association-deficient mutant receptor. FKBP12 knockdown also blocked morphine-induced mTOR activation. Further analysis demonstrated that morphine treatment enhanced the association of receptor with phosphorylated mTOR, whereas decreased association was observed after FKBP12 knockdown, mTOR inhibition or in cells expressing FKBP12 association-deficient mutant. CONCLUSIONS OPRM1-FKBP12 association played a key role in OPRM1-mediated mTOR activation, which could underlie the mechanisms of multiple physiological and pathological processes. Thus, our findings provide new avenue to modulating these processes.

Abstract
Differential regulation of the μ-opioid receptor (MOR), a G protein (heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding protein)-coupled receptor, contributes to the clinically limiting effects of opioid analgesics, such as morphine. We used biophysical approaches to quantify spatiotemporal MOR signaling in response to different ligands. In human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells overexpressing MOR, morphine caused a Gβγ-dependent increase in plasma membrane-localized protein kinase C (PKC) activity, which resulted in a restricted distribution of MOR within the plasma membrane and induced sustained cytosolic extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling. In contrast, the synthetic opioid peptide DAMGO ([d-Ala(2),N-Me-Phe(4),Gly(5)-ol]-enkephalin) enabled receptor redistribution within the plasma membrane, resulting in transient increases in cytosolic and nuclear ERK activity, and, subsequently, receptor internalization. When Gβγ subunits or PKCα activity was inhibited or when the carboxyl-terminal phosphorylation sites of MOR were mutated, morphine-activated MOR was released from its restricted plasma membrane localization and stimulated a transient increase in cytosolic and nuclear ERK activity in the absence of receptor internalization. Thus, these data suggest that the ligand-induced redistribution of MOR within the plasma membrane, and not its internalization, controls its spatiotemporal signaling.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of residues in the C-terminal tail of the µ-opioid receptor (MOPr) is thought to be a key step in desensitization and internalization. Phosphorylation of C-terminal S/T residues is required for internalization (Just et al., 2013), but its role in desensitization is unknown. This study examined the influence of C-terminal phosphorylation sites on rapid desensitization of MOPr. Wild-type MOPr, a 3S/T-A mutant (S363A, T370A, S375A) that maintains internalization, 6S/T-A (S363A, T370A, S375A, T376A, T379A, T383A) and 11S/T-A (all C-terminal S/T residues mutated) mutants not internalized by MOPr agonists were stably expressed in AtT20 cells. Perforated patch-clamp recordings of MOPr-mediated activation of G-protein-activated inwardly rectifying potassium channel (Kir3.X) (GIRK) conductance by submaximal concentrations of Met(5)-enkephalin (ME) and somatostatin (SST; coupling to native SST receptor [SSTR]) were used to examine desensitization induced by exposure to ME and morphine for 5 minutes at 37°C. The rates of ME- and morphine-induced desensitization did not correlate with phosphorylation using phosphorylation site-specific antibodies. ME-induced MOPr desensitization and resensitization did not differ from wild-type for 3S/T-A and 6S/T-A but was abolished in 11S/T-A. Morphine-induced desensitization was unaffected in all three mutants, as was heterologous desensitization of SSTR. Morphine-induced desensitization (but not ME) was reduced by protein kinase C inhibition in wild-type MOPr and abolished in the 11S/T-A mutant, as was heterologous desensitization. These findings establish that MOPr desensitization can occur independently of S/T phosphorylation and internalization; however, C-terminal phosphorylation is necessary for some forms of desensitization because mutation of all C-terminal sites (11S/T-A) abolishes desensitization induced by ME.

Role of FK506 binding protein 12 in morphine-induced μ-opioid receptor internalization and desensitization. Neurosci Lett 2014; 566:231-235.

Abstract
Agonist-activated μ-opioid receptor (OPRM1) undergoes robust receptor phosphorylation by G protein-coupled receptor kinases and subsequent β-arrestin recruitment, triggering receptor internalization and desensitization. Morphine, a widely prescribed opioid, induces receptor phosphorylation inefficiently. Previously we reported that FK506 binding protein 12 (FKBP12) specifically interacts with OPRM1 and such interaction attenuates receptor phosphorylation and facilitates morphine-induced recruitment and activation of protein kinase C. In the current study, we demonstrated that the association of FKBP12 with OPRM1 also affects morphine-induced receptor internalization and G protein-dependent adenylyl cyclase desensitization. Morphine induced faster receptor internalization and adenylyl cyclase desensitization in cells expressing OPRM1 with Pro(353) mutated to Ala (OPRM1P353A), which does not interact with FKBP12, or in the presence of FK506 which dissociates the receptor-FKBP12 interaction. Furthermore, knockdown of cellular FKBP12 level by siRNA accelerated morphine-induced receptor internalization and adenylyl cyclase desensitization. Our study further demonstrated that peptidyl prolyl cis-trans isomerase activity of FKBP12 probably plays a role in inhibition of receptor phosphorylation. In the view that internalized receptor recycles and thus counteracts the development of analgesic tolerance, receptor's association with FKBP12 could also contribute to the development of morphine tolerance through modulation of receptor trafficking.
