Rapid reversal by naloxone of the chronic effects of morphine on rat liver and brain tryptophan metabolism.

A A Badawy, M Evans.   

Abstract

The chronic morphine-induced inhibition of rat liver tryptophan pyrrolase activity and the resultant increases in tryptophan availability to the brain and brain 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) synthesis are reversed within 10 min after naloxone administration. The possible involvement of hepatic tryptophan metabolism in morphine dependence is briefly discussed.
