In Vitro Study

Study Snapshot

Naloxazone selectively blocks high affinity opiate and enkephalin binding, suggesting that morphiceptin binds to mu or morphine-type receptors, mediating its analgesic activity.

PopulationOlder adults (50-71 years)

Sample size24

MethodsObservational

OutcomesBody Mass Index projections

ResultsSocial networks mitigate obesity in older groups.
