Abstract
MOR agonists are excellent analgesics; however, they are not first-line treatments for chronic pain, in part due to abuse potential. This study demonstrates that small, significant rightward shifts in the fentanyl dose response curve were observed following induction of both sham and spared nerve injury (SNI) (chronic neuropathic pain-like) states, suggesting these changes were observed independent of pain state. These data indicate that SNI-induced neuropathic pain failed to alter the ongoing self-administration of highly potent MOR agonist, fentanyl.
