Abstract

Certains peptides administres pendant un traitement chronique a la morphine se sont reveles etre efficaces dans la prevention du developpement de la tolerance et de la dependance physiques. Les peptides particulierement efficaces sont le prolyle-leucyle-glycinamide, le cyclo (leucyleglycle), et le peptide protege- N-carbobenzoxy-prolyle-D-leucyle, qui, injectes quotidiennement dans des souris recevant un traitement chronique de morphine, ont empeche le developpement de la dependance physique, ce qui a ete mesuree par des changements de la temperature et du poids du corps, soit lors d'un arret brusque ou sous naloxone. Toutefois l'injection d'un peptide le dernier jour seulement du traitement a morphine n'a pas altere les signes manifestes de l'arret. L'injection quotidienne d'un peptide s'est revelee egalement efficace pour bloquer le developpement de la tolerance aux effets analgesiques et hypothermiques de doses ulterieures provocatrices de morphine. Le traitement de peptides n'a pas altere les effets aigus de la morphine sur l'analgesie ou la temperature du corps. Aucun effet sur la memoire n'a ete remarque comme cela a pu etre evalue dans un exercice d'epreuve a annulation passive.
