Several studies using selective opioid agonists or mice with a deletion of the µ-opioid receptor, have shown that morphine dependence is essentially due to chronic stimulation of µ- but not delta -opioid receptors. Because dependence is assumed to be related to persistent intracellular modifications, we have investigated modifications putatively induced by chronic activation of µ receptors with morphine or selective agonists in vitro in SH-SY5Y cells and in vivo in different strains of mice, including mice lacking the µ-opioid receptor gene. The results show a similar down-regulation and desensitization of µ and delta  binding sites, whereas an overexpression of dynamin occurred only with µ agonists, strongly suggesting the relevance of this up-regulation with the opiate dependence. Moreover, translocation of overexpressed dynamin from intracellular pools to plasma membranes was observed in chronic morphine-treated rats. This recruitment could be critically involved in long-lasting changes such as alterations of axonal transport observed in opioid dependence.
