Relationships between opiate receptor binding and analgetic properties of prodine-type compounds.
The receptor binding affinities of some diastereoisomeric prodine analgoues have been compared with their analgetic activities determined by the hot-plate test in mice. The close correlation found between these potencies indicates that the relative analgetic activities of the alpha/beta isomers are determined primarily by the appropriate association to the receptor sites.
