title: [Changes in the transcription capacity of the chromatin of nerve and liver cells exposed to morphine and opioids].
abstract: Morphine stimulates in vitro 3H-UTP incorporation into the nuclei of neurons of the superior cervical ganglion and into the hepatocyte nuclei of some rodents. This effect is dose-dependent and partially inhibited by naloxone. A synthetic analog of enkephalins, D-Ala2-Gly-ol5-enkephalin (DAGO), and beta-endorphin stimulate the incorporation of RNA precursors into pre-rRNA. Possible mechanisms of morphine action are discussed.
