•UNIGE researchers discover molecules capable of blocking opioids' activity
65% Informative
Researchers from the University of Geneva have discovered molecules capable of limiting the side effects of opioids by blocking the receptor responsible for their action.
Nanobody NbE binds tightly and durably to the cell receptors that usually bind to opioids, thereby blocking the drugs’ activity.
Even smaller molecules that retain the same properties could prove far more effective than current treatments in mitigating the harmful effects.
