Involvement of Cholinergic and Opioid System in γ-Terpinene-Mediated Antinociception
The literature shows that the monoterpenes are great candidates for the development of new drugs for the treatment of various pathological processes, including painful conditions. The gamma terpinene (γ-TPN) is a monoterpene present in plant species that have multiple pharmacological properties and has structural similarity to antinociceptive monoterpenes, such as limonene and alpha-phellandren...
متن کاملThioperamide-induced Antinociception is Mediated through Endogenous Opioid System in the Dentate Gyrus of Adult Rats
The present study investigated the effects of intra-dentate gyrus microinjection of naloxone (an opioid antagonist) and thioperamide (an antagonist of histamine H3 receptors) in the formalin test in rats. Subcutaneous injection of formalin (50 μl, 2.5 %) in the ventral surface of right hind paw produced a biphasic pattern (first phase: 0-5 min and second phase: 15 - 60 min) of licking/biting an...
متن کاملINVOLVEMENT OF THE SEROTONIN SYSTEM IN SSRI-INDUCED ANTINOCICEPTION
Serotonin specific reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) may induce antinociception however, the mechanism of this effect is not clear. SSRls increase 5-HT levels in neuronal synapses and facilitate serotonergic activity. In this study, therefore, the activity of para-chlorophenylalanine (pCPA), which reduces 5-HT release, and 5- hydroxy tryptophan (5-HTP), a precursor of 5-HT, were examined on the a...

متن کاملBuprenorphine Blocks - and -Opioid Receptor-Mediated Antinociception in the Mouse
Antagonistic properties of buprenorphine for and -opioid receptors were characterized in -endorphinand [D-Ala,NMe-Phe,Gly-ol]-enkephalin (DAMGO)-induced antinociception, respectively, with the tail-flick test in male ICR mice. -Opioid receptor agonist -endorphin (0.1–1 g), -opioid receptor agonist DAMGO (0.5–20 ng), or buprenorphine (0.1–20 g) administered i.c.v. dose dependently produced antin...
