Abstract
The effect of pyrrolidinomorphinane derivatives possessing an analgesic activity on the membrane potential of isolated neurons of a mollusc treated with selective antagonists of opioid receptors was studied. The results confirm the opioid mechanism of the action of these compounds shown earlier in experiments in vivo on mice and indicate the nonselectivity of the interaction of the agent T-11 with all types of opioid receptors, as well the preference of the interaction of the agent Sh-42 with κ-receptors.
