A role of nociceptin and its receptor (NOP) in pain and immune function has been suggested. The hypothesis was that mRNA expression of NOP and the nociceptin precursor pre-pronociceptin (pN/OFQ) in peripheral blood cells differs in end-stage cancer patients suffering from chronic pain and septic intensive care unit (ICU) patients compared with healthy controls.
