That’s why pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy is considered multifactorial and independent on the gender of patients.
Mu-, delta- and kappa-opioid receptors are widely expressed in the central nervous system where they mediate the strong analgesic and mood-altering actions of opioids, and modulate numerous endogenous functions(3).
Nalbuphine is a mixed agonist/antagonist opioid that induce analgesia by acting predominantly at kappa opioid receptors, have recently been shown in single- dose studies to have greater analgesic efficacy in women than in men(4).
Now, research has revealed that the same major types of opioid receptor interact differently depending on sex. The spinal cord of female laboratory animals was found to contain almost five times more kappa-mu heterodimer - a complex of mu- opioid and kappa-opioid receptor- than the spinal cord of male animals.
