    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for improving the utilization of the production potential of transgenic plants. In the last years, there has been a marked increase in the proportion of transgenic plants in agriculture, even if regional differences are still noticeable to date. Thus, for example, the proportion of transgenic maize in the USA has doubled from 26% to 52% since 2001, while transgenic maize has hardly been of any practical importance in Germany. However, in other European countries, for example in Spain, the proportion of transgenic maize is already about 12%.

  • Publication number: 20100227876
    Abstract: The invention provides for compositions and methods of reducing pain in a subject by administering a combination of mu-opioid receptor agonist, kappa1-opioid receptor agonist and a nonselective opioid receptor antagonist in amounts effective to reduce pain and ameliorate an adverse side effect of treatment combining opioid-receptor agonists. The invention also provides for methods of enhancing an analgesic effect of treatment with an opioid-receptor agonist in a subject suffering from pain while reducing an adverse side effect of the treatment. The invention also provides for methods of reducing the hyperalgesic effect of treatment with an opioid-receptor agonist in a subject suffering from pain while reducing an adverse side effect of the treatment. The invention further provides for methods of promoting the additive analgesia of pain treatment with an opioid-receptor agonist in a subject in need while reducing an adverse side effect of the treatment.
