Abstract: Not surprisingly, mu-opioid receptors are generally localized to parts of the central nervous system
that are implicated in the modulation of pain and reward. In the early 1980s, however, Michael Lewis at the
National Institute of Mental Health and his colleagues discovered these receptors in a part of the macaque
monkey cerebral cortex that is involved in processing visual information.
