Corpus striatum and spinal cord were the regions where opioid receptors appeared earlier with their densities higher than other regions. There were apparent species differences of the receptor subtypes and receptor distributions in hippocampal formation and in cerebellum. Cerebral cortex was the area in which opioid receptors reached the adult level later than other regions. UR - http://www.chinaphar.com/article/view/8605
