Disinhibition does not play a role in endomorphin-2-induced changes in inspiratory motoneuron output produced by in vitro neonatal rat preparations. Respir Physiol Neurobiol 2024; 320:104186.

Abstract
Low level activation of mu-opioid receptors (MORs) in neonatal rat brainstem-spinal cord preparations increases inspiratory burst amplitude recorded on cervical spinal roots. We tested whether: (1) MOR activation with an endogenous ligand, such as endomorphin-2, increases inspiratory burst amplitude, (2) disinhibition of GABAergic or glycinergic inhibitory synaptic transmission is involved, and (3) inflammation alters endomorphin-2 effects. Using neonatal rat (P0-P3) brainstem-spinal cord preparations, bath-applied endomorphin-2 (10-200 nM) increased inspiratory burst amplitude and decreased burst frequency. Blockade of GABAA receptors (picrotoxin), glycine receptors (strychnine), or both (picrotoxin and strychnine) did not abolish endomorphin-2-induced effects. In preparations isolated from neonatal rats injected 3 h previously with lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 0.1 mg/kg), endomorphin-2 continued to decrease burst frequency but abolished the burst amplitude increase. Collectively, these data indicate that disinhibition of inhibitory synaptic transmission is unlikely to play a role in endomorphin-2-induced changes in inspiratory motor output, and that different mechanisms underlie the endomorphin-2-induced increases in inspiratory burst amplitude and decreases in burst frequency.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine if extended-release, bioabsorbable, subcutaneous naltrexone (NTX) implants inhibit respiratory depression after an IV injection of fentanyl. Bioabsorbable implants fabricated from two different release-controlling polymers, poly-D-L-lactide (PDLLA) and polycaprolactone (PCL), alone (placebo) or containing NTX, were subcutaneously implanted in Sprague Dawley rats. After 3.5 months of implantation, the rodents were administered an IV bolus of fentanyl through the tail vein. The placebo implant rats received a dose of 4 micrograms (mcg) - (10 mcg/kg/dose), while the NTX implanted animals received a dose of 8 mcg (20 mcg/kg/dose). The minimum active dose of fentanyl that caused a > 50 ± 2% depression in the respiration rate in the placebo implanted rodents was 4 mcg. The respiration rate of the placebo implanted rats dropped from 208 ± 14 breaths/minute at predose, to 84 ± 12 breaths/minute (p = 0.0003) at 2 min. In contrast, all NTX implanted animals easily tolerated twice the dose of 8 mcg of fentanyl without any significant reduction in respiration rate. The mean respiration rate = increased from 164 ± 22 breaths/minute at predose to 178 ± 17 breaths/minute (p = 0.24) at 2 min. The mean plasma concentrations of NTX, 3.5 months after implantation, ranged from 7.4 (±1.1) ng/mL to 80.3 (±37.5) ng/mL. Bioabsorbable implants containing NTX effectively blocked fentanyl-induced respiratory depression in rodents as compared with placebo implants, 3.5 months after implantation.

Abstract
This study provides an in-depth analysis of the distinct consequences of the opioid drugs morphine and fentanyl during opioid-induced respiratory depression (OIRD). We explored the physiological implications of both drugs on ventilation and airway patency in anaesthetized mice. Our results revealed a similar reduction in respiratory frequency with equivalent scaled dosages of fentanyl and morphine, though the onset of suppression was more rapid with fentanyl. Additionally, fentanyl resulted in transient airflow obstructions during the inspiratory cycle, which were absent following morphine administration. Notably, these fentanyl-specific obstructions were eliminated with tracheostomy, implicating the upper airways as a major factor contributing to fentanyl-induced respiratory depression. We further demonstrate that bronchodilators salbutamol and adrenaline effectively reversed these obstructions, highlighting the bronchi's contribution to fentanyl-induced airflow obstruction. Our study also uncovered a significant reduction in sighs during OIRD, which were eliminated by fentanyl and markedly reduced by morphine. Finally, we found that fentanyl-exposed mice had reduced survival under hypoxic conditions compared to mice given morphine, demonstrating that fentanyl becomes more lethal in the context of hypoxaemia. Our findings shed light on the distinct and profound impacts of these opioids on respiration and airway stability and lay the foundation for improved opioid use guidelines and more effective OIRD prevention strategies. KEY POINTS: Both morphine and fentanyl significantly suppressed respiratory frequency, but the onset of suppression was faster with fentanyl. Also, while both drugs increased tidal volume, this effect was more pronounced with fentanyl. Fentanyl administration resulted in transient obstructions during the inspiratory phase, suggesting its unique impact on airway stability. This obstruction was not observed with morphine. The fentanyl-induced obstructions were reversed by administering bronchodilators such as salbutamol and adrenaline. This suggests a possible therapeutic strategy for mitigating the adverse airway effects of fentanyl. Both drugs reduced the frequency of physiological sighs, a key mechanism to prevent alveolar collapse. However, fentanyl administration led to a complete cessation of sighs, while morphine only reduced their occurrence. Fentanyl-treated mice showed a significantly reduced ability to survive under hypoxic conditions compared to those administered morphine. This indicates that the impacts of hypoxaemia during opioid-induced respiratory depression can vary based on the opioid used.

Abstract
Introduction: In vivo studies using selective, localized opioid antagonist injections or localized opioid receptor deletion have identified that systemic opioids dose-dependently depress respiratory output through effects in multiple respiratory-related brainstem areas. Methods: With approval of the subcommittee on animal studies of the Zablocki VA Medical Center, experiments were performed in 53 decerebrate, vagotomized, mechanically ventilated dogs of either sex during isocapnic hyperoxia. We performed single neuron recordings in the Pontine Respiratory Group (PRG, n = 432) and preBötzinger/Bötzinger complex region (preBötC/BötC, n = 213) before and during intravenous remifentanil infusion (0.1-1 mcg/kg/min) and then until complete recovery of phrenic nerve activity. A generalized linear mixed model was used to determine changes in Fn with remifentanil and the statistical association between remifentanil-induced changes in Fn and changes in inspiratory and expiratory duration and peak phrenic activity. Analysis was controlled via random effects for animal, run, and neuron type. Results: Remifentanil decreased Fn in most neuron subtypes in the preBötC/BötC as well as in inspiratory (I), inspiratory-expiratory, expiratory (E) decrementing and non-respiratory modulated neurons in the PRG. The decrease in PRG inspiratory and non-respiratory modulated neuronal activity was associated with an increase in inspiratory duration. In the preBötC, the decrease in I-decrementing neuron activity was associated with an increase in expiratory and of E-decrementing activity with an increase in inspiratory duration. In contrast, decreased activity of I-augmenting neurons was associated with a decrease in inspiratory duration. Discussion: While statistical associations do not necessarily imply a causal relationship, our data suggest mechanisms for the opioid-induced increase in expiratory duration in the PRG and preBötC/BötC and how inspiratory failure at high opioid doses may result from a decrease in activity and decrease in slope of the pre-inspiratory ramp-like activity in preBötC/BötC pre-inspiratory neurons combined with a depression of preBötC/BötC I-augmenting neurons. Additional studies must clarify whether the observed changes in neuronal activity are due to direct neuronal inhibition or decreased excitatory inputs.

Abstract
Hip dysplasia is an alteration with a high incidence in large dogs. The aim of the study was to compare the association of xylazine or dexmedetomidine with fentanyl for radiography with joint distractor for the diagnosis of hip dysplasia. Fifteen healthy dogs, German Shepherd and Belgian Shepherd, were randomly submitted to treatments 0.2 mg/kg xylazine + 2.5 µg/kg fentanyl (XF) or 2 µg/kg dexmedetomidine + 2.5 µg/kg fentanyl (DF), intravenously. HR, f, SAP, MAP, DAP and TR were evaluated at intervals of 5 min before and after the administration of treatments; pH, PaCO2, PaO2, BE, HCO3-, SaO2, Na+, K+ and Hb at 5 and 15 min after treatment administration; and the quality of sedation at intervals of 5 min after administration of treatments. Latency, duration, and recovery times were also compared. The HR values showed a significant reduction in both groups, as well as pH, PaCO2, PaO2 and SaO2. Latency, duration and recovery times, and quality of sedation did not differ statistically between groups. Xylazine and fentanyl or dexmedetomidine and fentanyl combinations provide adequate sedation and analgesia for performing diagnostic radiographic procedures for hip dysplasia. However, oxygen supplementation is recommended to increase protocol safety.

Abstract
Breathing is regulated automatically by neural circuits in the medulla to maintain homeostasis, but breathing is also modified by behavior and emotion. Mice have rapid breathing patterns that are unique to the awake state and distinct from those driven by automatic reflexes. Activation of medullary neurons that control automatic breathing does not reproduce these rapid breathing patterns. By manipulating transcriptionally defined neurons in the parabrachial nucleus, we identify a subset of neurons that express the Tac1, but not Calca, gene that exerts potent and precise conditional control of breathing in the awake, but not anesthetized, state via projections to the ventral intermediate reticular zone of the medulla. Activating these neurons drives breathing to frequencies that match the physiological maximum through mechanisms that differ from those that underlie the automatic control of breathing. We postulate that this circuit is important for the integration of breathing with state-dependent behaviors and emotions.

Abstract
The inspiratory rhythm generator, located in the brainstem preBötzinger complex (preBötC), is dependent on glutamatergic signaling and is affected profoundly by opioids. Here, we used organotypic slice cultures of the newborn mouse brainstem of either sex in combination with genetically encoded sensors for Ca2+, glutamate, and GABA to visualize Ca2+, glutamatergic and GABAergic signaling during spontaneous rhythm and in the presence of DAMGO. During spontaneous rhythm, the glutamate sensor SF-iGluSnFR.A184S revealed punctate synapse-like fluorescent signals along dendrites and somas in the preBötC with decay times that were prolonged by the glutamate uptake blocker (TFB-TBOA). The GABA sensor iGABASnFR showed a more diffuse fluorescent signal during spontaneous rhythm. Rhythmic Ca2+- and glutamate transients had an inverse relationship between the spontaneous burst frequency and the burst amplitude of the Ca2+ and glutamate signals. A similar inverse relationship was observed when bath applied DAMGO reduced spontaneous burst frequency and increased the burst amplitude of Ca2+, glutamate, and GABA transient signals. However, a hypoxic challenge reduced both burst frequency and Ca2+ transient amplitude. Using a cocktail that blocked glutamatergic, GABAergic, and glycinergic transmission to indirectly measure the release of glutamate/GABA in response to an electrical stimulus, we found that DAMGO reduces the release of glutamate in the preBötC but has no effect on GABA release. This suggest that the opioid mediated slowing of respiratory rhythm involves presynaptic reduction of glutamate release, which would impact the ability of the network to engage in recurrent excitation, and may result in the opioid-induced slowing of inspiratory rhythm.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Opioids slow down breathing rhythm by affecting neurons in the preBötzinger complex (preBötC) and other brainstem regions. Here, we used cultured slices of the preBötC to better understand this effect by optically recording Ca2+, glutamate, and GABA transients during preBötC activity. Spontaneous rhythm showed an inverse relationship between burst frequency and burst amplitude in the Ca2+ and glutamate signals. Application of the opioid DAMGO slowed the rhythm, with a concomitant increase in Ca2+, glutamate, and GABA signals. When rhythm was blocked pharmacologically, DAMGO reduced the presynaptic release of glutamate, but not GABA. These data suggest the mechanism of action of opioids involves presynaptic reduction of glutamate release, which may play an important role in the opioid-induced slowing of inspiratory rhythm.

Abstract
We are developing a series of thiolesters that produce an immediate and sustained reversal of the deleterious effects of opioids, such as morphine and fentanyl, on ventilation without diminishing the antinociceptive effects of these opioids. We report here the effects of systemic injections of L-cysteine methyl ester (L-CYSme) on morphine-induced changes in ventilatory parameters, arterial-blood gas (ABG) chemistry (pH, pCO2, pO2, sO2), Alveolar-arterial (A-a) gradient (i.e., the index of alveolar gas-exchange within the lungs), and antinociception in unanesthetized Sprague Dawley rats. The administration of morphine (10 mg/kg, IV) produced a series of deleterious effects on ventilatory parameters, including sustained decreases in tidal volume, minute ventilation, inspiratory drive and peak inspiratory flow that were accompanied by a sustained increase in end inspiratory pause. A single injection of L-CYSme (500 μmol/kg, IV) produced a rapid and long-lasting reversal of the deleterious effects of morphine on ventilatory parameters, and a second injection of L-CYSme (500 μmol/kg, IV) elicited pronounced increases in ventilatory parameters, such as minute ventilation, to values well above pre-morphine levels. L-CYSme (250 or 500 μmol/kg, IV) also produced an immediate and sustained reversal of the deleterious effects of morphine (10 mg/kg, IV) on arterial blood pH, pCO2, pO2, sO2 and A-a gradient, whereas L-cysteine (500 μmol/kg, IV) itself was inactive. L-CYSme (500 μmol/kg, IV) did not appear to modulate the sedative effects of morphine as measured by righting reflex times, but did diminish the duration, however, not the magnitude of the antinociceptive actions of morphine (5 or 10 mg/kg, IV) as determined in tail-flick latency and hindpaw-withdrawal latency assays. These findings provide evidence that L-CYSme can powerfully overcome the deleterious effects of morphine on breathing and gas-exchange in Sprague Dawley rats while not affecting the sedative or early stage antinociceptive effects of the opioid. The mechanisms by which L-CYSme interferes with the OR-induced signaling pathways that mediate the deleterious effects of morphine on ventilatory performance, and by which L-CYSme diminishes the late stage antinociceptive action of morphine remain to be determined.

Abstract
Endogenous opioid peptides activating mu-opioid receptors (MORs) are part of an intricate neuromodulatory system that coordinates and optimizes respiratory motor output to maintain blood-gas homeostasis. MOR activation is typically associated with respiratory depression but also has excitatory effects on breathing and respiratory neurons. We hypothesized that low level MOR activation induces excitatory effects on the respiratory motor pattern. Thus, low concentrations of an MOR agonist drug (DAMGO, 10–200 nM) were bath-applied to neonatal rat brainstem-spinal cord preparations while recording inspiratory-related motor output on cervical spinal roots (C4-C5). Bath-applied DAMGO (50–200 nM) increased inspiratory motor burst amplitude by 40–60% during (and shortly following) drug application with decreased burst frequency and minute activity. Reciprocal changes in inspiratory burst amplitude and frequency were balanced such that 20 min after DAMGO (50–200 nM) application, minute activity was unaltered compared to pre-DAMGO levels. The DAMGO-induced inspiratory burst amplitude increase did not require crossed cervical spinal pathways, was expressed on thoracic ventral spinal roots (T4-T8) and remained unaltered by riluzole pretreatment (blocks persistent sodium currents associated with gasping). Split-bath experiments showed that the inspiratory burst amplitude increase was induced only when DAMGO was bath-applied to the brainstem and not the spinal cord. Thus, MOR activation in neonates induces a respiratory burst amplitude increase via brainstem-specific mechanisms. The burst amplitude increase counteracts the expected MOR-dependent frequency depression and may represent a new mechanism by which MOR activation influences respiratory motor output.

Impaired chemoreflex responses are a central feature of opioid-induced respiratory depression, however, the mechanism through which mu opioid receptor agonists lead to diminished chemoreflexes is not fully understood. One brainstem structure involved in opioid-induced impairment of chemoreflexes is the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS), which contains a population of neurons that express mu opioid receptors. Here, we tested whether caudal NTS neurons activated during the chemoreflex challenge express mu opioid receptors and overlap with neurons activated by opioids. Using genetic labeling of mu opioid receptor-expressing neurons and cFos immunohistochemistry as a proxy for neuronal activation, we examined the distribution of activated NTS neurons following hypercapnia, hypoxia, and morphine administration. The main finding was that hypoxia and hypercapnia primarily activated NTS neurons that did not express mu opioid receptors. Furthermore, concurrent administration of morphine with hypercapnia induced cFos expression in non-overlapping populations of neurons. Together these results suggest an indirect effect of opioids within the NTS, which could be mediated through mu opioid receptors on afferents and/or inhibitory interneurons.

Abstract
Breathing is a vital rhythmic motor behavior with a surprisingly broad influence on the brain and body. The apparent simplicity of breathing belies a complex neural control system, the breathing central pattern generator (bCPG), that exhibits diverse operational modes to regulate gas exchange and coordinate breathing with an array of behaviors. In this review, we focus on selected advances in our understanding of the bCPG. At the core of the bCPG is the preBötzinger complex (preBötC), which drives inspiratory rhythm via an unexpectedly sophisticated emergent mechanism. Synchronization dynamics underlying preBötC rhythmogenesis imbue the system with robustness and lability. These dynamics are modulated by inputs from throughout the brain and generate rhythmic, patterned activity that is widely distributed. The connectivity and an emerging literature support a link between breathing, emotion, and cognition that is becoming experimentally tractable. These advances bring great potential for elucidating function and dysfunction in breathing and other mammalian neural circuits.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Newborns with prenatal opioid exposure (POE) are commonly diagnosed with neonatal abstinence/opioid-withdrawal syndromes due to characteristic symptoms and overt behaviors. However, little is known about the underlying physiology of opioid-exposed newborns. OBJECTIVE Cardiac, respiratory and movement activity were measured to identify physiologic dysregulation and quantify pathophysiologic instabilities of the central and autonomic nervous systems in POE newborns. METHODS In this pilot study, 30 hospitalized POE newborns (>35 wks gestational age) participated in one of two study phases wherein physiologic activity was measured for an 8-10 h session. In Phase 1, 17 infants received usual treatment to provide a general assessment of physiologic activity. In Phase 2, 13 infants participated in an interventional study (NCT02768844) using a prototype mattress that delivered stochastic vibratory stimulation (SVS). Changes in physiologic activity were compared for device on (N) and off (F) for three interfeed periods (FNF or NFN). RESULTS Phase 1 showed that although infants' heart rate was on average within normal newborn range (mean 137 bpm, SD 7), infants were tachycardic 16% of the study period and tachypneic (mean 74 breaths/min, SD 13) 62% of the period. Infants moved 33% of the period; 17% were durations >30 s. In Phase 2, heart rate, respiratory rate, movement duration and frequency were each reduced for SVS N compared to SVS F in the FNF protocol (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Findings support that physiologic measures can identify dysregulation not captured with current withdrawal scoring assessments. Larger studies are warranted to assess if mattress SVS helps regulate pathophysiologic instabilities in infants with POE.

Abstract
Background and Purpose Mitragynine, the major alkaloid in Mitragyna speciosa (kratom), is a partial agonist at the μ opioid receptor. CYP3A‐dependent oxidation of mitragynine yields the metabolite 7‐OH mitragynine, a more efficacious μ receptor agonist. While both mitragynine and 7‐OH mitragynine can induce anti‐nociception in mice, recent evidence suggests that 7‐OH mitragynine formed as a metabolite is sufficient to explain the anti‐nociceptive effects of mitragynine. However, the ability of 7‐OH mitragynine to induce μ receptor‐dependent respiratory depression has not yet been studied. Experimental Approach Respiration was measured in awake, freely moving, male CD‐1 mice, using whole body plethysmography. Anti‐nociception was measured using the hot plate assay. Morphine, mitragynine, 7‐OH mitragynine and the CYP3A inhibitor ketoconazole were administered orally. Key Results The respiratory depressant effects of mitragynine showed a ceiling effect, whereby doses higher than 10 mg·kg−1 produced the same level of effect. In contrast, 7‐OH mitragynine induced a dose‐dependent effect on mouse respiration. At equi‐depressant doses, both mitragynine and 7‐OH mitragynine induced prolonged anti‐nociception. Inhibition of CYP3A reduced mitragynine‐induced respiratory depression and anti‐nociception without affecting the effects of 7‐OH mitragynine. Conclusions and Implications Both the anti‐nociceptive effects and the respiratory depressant effects of mitragynine are partly due to its metabolic conversion to 7‐OH mitragynine. The limiting rate of conversion of mitragynine into its active metabolite results in a built‐in ceiling effect of the mitragynine‐induced respiratory depression. These data suggest that such ‘metabolic saturation’ at high doses may underlie the improved safety profile of mitragynine as an opioid analgesic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Opioid-induced respiratory depression can be partially antagonized in the preBötzinger Complex and Parabrachial Nucleus/Kölliker-Fuse Complex. We hypothesized that additional opioid antagonism in the caudal medullary raphe completely reverses the opioid effect. METHODS In adult ventilated, vagotomized, decerebrate rabbits, we administrated remifentanil intravenously at "analgesic", "apneic", and "very high" doses and determined the reversal with sequential naloxone microinjections into the bilateral Parabrachial Nucleus/Kölliker-Fuse Complex, preBötzinger Complex, and caudal medullary raphe. In separate animals, we injected opioid antagonists into the raphe without intravenous remifentanil. RESULTS Sequential naloxone microinjections completely reversed respiratory rate depression from "analgesic" and "apneic" remifentanil, but not "very high" remifentanil concentrations. Antagonist injection into the caudal medullary raphe without remifentanil independently increased respiratory rate. CONCLUSIONS Opioid-induced respiratory depression results from a combined effect on the respiratory rhythm generator and respiratory drive. The effect in the caudal medullary raphe is complex as we also observed local antagonism of endogenous opioid receptor activation, which has not been described before.

Acute morphine blocks spinal respiratory motor plasticity via long-latency mechanisms that require toll-like receptor 4 signalling. J Physiol 2021; 599:3771-3797.

Abstract
KEY POINTS While respiratory complications following opioid use are mainly mediated via activation of mu opioid receptors, long-latency off-target signalling via innate immune toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) may impair other essential elements of breathing control such as respiratory motor plasticity. In adult rats, pre-treatment with a single dose of morphine blocked long-term facilitation (LTF) of phrenic motor output via a long-latency TLR4-dependent mechanism. In the phrenic motor nucleus, morphine triggered TLR4-dependent activation of microglial p38 MAPK - a key enzyme that orchestrates inflammatory signalling and is known to undermine phrenic LTF. Morphine-induced LTF loss may destabilize breathing, potentially contributing to respiratory side effects. Therefore, we suggest minimizing TLR-4 signalling may improve breathing stability during opioid therapy. ABSTRACT Opioid-induced respiratory dysfunction is a significant public health burden. While respiratory effects are mediated via mu opioid receptors, long-latency off-target opioid signalling through innate immune toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) may modulate essential elements of breathing control, particularly respiratory motor plasticity. Plasticity in respiratory motor circuits contributes to the preservation of breathing in the face of destabilizing influences. For example, respiratory long-term facilitation (LTF), a well-studied model of respiratory motor plasticity triggered by acute intermittent hypoxia, promotes breathing stability by increasing respiratory motor drive to breathing muscles. Some forms of respiratory LTF are exquisitely sensitive to inflammation and are abolished by even a mild inflammation triggered by TLR4 activation (e.g. via systemic lipopolysaccharides). Since opioids induce inflammation and TLR4 activation, we hypothesized that opioids would abolish LTF through a TLR4-dependent mechanism. In adult Sprague Dawley rats, pre-treatment with a single systemic injection of the prototypical opioid agonist morphine blocks LTF expression several hours later in the phrenic motor system - the motor pool driving diaphragm muscle contractions. Morphine blocked phrenic LTF via TLR4-dependent mechanisms because pre-treatment with (+)-naloxone - the opioid inactive stereoisomer and novel small molecule TLR4 inhibitor - prevented impairment of phrenic LTF in morphine-treated rats. Morphine triggered TLR4-dependent activation of microglial p38 MAPK within the phrenic motor system - a key enzyme that orchestrates inflammatory signalling and undermines phrenic LTF. Morphine-induced LTF loss may destabilize breathing, potentially contributing to respiratory side effects. We suggest minimizing TLR-4 signalling may improve breathing stability during opioid therapy by restoring endogenous mechanisms of plasticity within respiratory motor circuits.

Abstract
Obtundation of wakefulness caused by opioids and loss of wakefulness caused by anesthetics and sleep significantly alter concentrations of molecules comprising the prefrontal cortex (PFC) metabolome. Quantifying state-selective changes in the PFC metabolome is essential for advancing functional metabolomics. Diverse functions of the PFC suggest the PFC metabolome as a potential therapeutic entry point for countermeasures to state-selective autonomic dysfunction.

Glutathione ethyl ester reverses the deleterious effects of fentanyl on ventilation and arterial blood-gas chemistry while prolonging fentanyl-induced analgesia. Sci Rep 2021; 11:6985.

Abstract
There is an urgent need to develop novel compounds that prevent the deleterious effects of opioids such as fentanyl on minute ventilation while, if possible, preserving the analgesic actions of the opioids. We report that L-glutathione ethyl ester (GSHee) may be such a novel compound. In this study, we measured tail flick latency (TFL), arterial blood gas (ABG) chemistry, Alveolar-arterial gradient, and ventilatory parameters by whole body plethysmography to determine the responses elicited by bolus injections of fentanyl (75 μg/kg, IV) in male adult Sprague-Dawley rats that had received a bolus injection of GSHee (100 μmol/kg, IV) 15 min previously. GSHee given alone had minimal effects on TFL, ABG chemistry and A-a gradient whereas it elicited changes in some ventilatory parameters such as an increase in breathing frequency. In vehicle-treated rats, fentanyl elicited (1) an increase in TFL, (2) decreases in pH, pO2 and sO2 and increases in pCO2 (all indicative of ventilatory depression), (3) an increase in Alveolar-arterial gradient (indicative of a mismatch in ventilation-perfusion in the lungs), and (4) changes in ventilatory parameters such as a reduction in tidal volume, that were indicative of pronounced ventilatory depression. In GSHee-pretreated rats, fentanyl elicited a more prolonged analgesia, relatively minor changes in ABG chemistry and Alveolar-arterial gradient, and a substantially milder depression of ventilation. GSHee may represent an effective member of a novel class of thiolester drugs that are able to prevent the ventilatory depressant effects elicited by powerful opioids such as fentanyl and their deleterious effects on gas-exchange in the lungs without compromising opioid analgesia.
