February 2014 in “Neuron” The study revealed that the opioid system, particularly through delta opioid receptors (DOR), played a significant role in regulating cutaneous mechanosensation, including both touch and pain. DORs were found on myelinated mechanoreceptors associated with structures like Meissner corpuscles and Merkel cell-neurite complexes. These receptors also appeared on a subset of nociceptors coexpressing mu and delta opioid receptors. Activation of DORs at the central terminals of these mechanoreceptors inhibited synaptic input to the spinal dorsal horn by blocking voltage-gated calcium channels. This mechanism suggested that targeting DOR could be a potential strategy for managing injury-induced mechanical hypersensitivity.

October 1992 in “Journal of Clinical Pharmacy and Therapeutics” The document discussed drug-induced hair color changes, which were not common adverse effects of medications. It highlighted that while a variety of drugs were implicated in causing hair color changes, only chloroquine and cancer chemotherapeutic agents had substantial evidence supporting this association. Other drugs, such as p-aminobenzoic acid, calcium pantothenate, anthralin, chinoform, mephenesin, minoxidil, propofol, valproic acid, and verapamil, were mentioned as needing further confirmatory data. The study suggested that drug-induced causes should be considered in patients with unexplained hair color changes.
