Compound trans-4-(p-bromophenyl)-4-(dimethylamino)-1-(2-thiophen-2-yl-ethyl)-cyclohexanol (C8813), structurally unrelated to morphine, is a novel analgesic. The present study examined the antinociception, opioid receptor selectivity and in vitro activity of C8813. The antinociceptive activity was evaluated using mouse hot plate and acetic acid writhing tests. In mouse hot plate test, the antinociceptive ED(50) of C8813 was 11.5 microg/kg, being 591 times and 3.4 times more potent than morphine and fentanyl respectively. In mouse writhing test, the antinociceptive ED(50) of C8813 was 16.9 microg/kg, being 55 times and 2.3 times more active than morphine and fentanyl respectively. In the opioid receptor binding assay, C8813 showed high affinity for mu-opioid receptor (K(i) = 1.37 nM) and delta-opioid receptor (K(i) = 3.24 nM) but almost no affinity for kappa-opioid receptor (at 1 microM). In the bioassay, the inhibitory effect of C8813 in the guinea-pig ileum (GPI) was 16.5 times more potent than in the mouse vas deferens (MVD). The inhibitory effects of C8813 in the GPI and MVD could be antagonized by mu-opioid receptor antagonist naloxone and delta-opioid receptor antagonist ICI174,864 respectively. However, the inhibitory effect of C8813 in the rabbit vas deferens was very weak. These results indicated that C8813 was a potent analgesic and a high affinity agonist for the mu- and delta-opioid receptors.
