a

Membranes from CHO cells, expressing either human KORs, MORs, or DORs, were incubated with 12 different concentrations of the compounds in the presence of receptor-specific radioligands at 25°C, in a final volume of 1 mL of 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5. Nonspecific binding was determined using 10 μM naloxone.
