چکیده

The effect of morphine on regional cerebral glucose metabolism was measured in rats using high resolution [14C]2-deoxyglucose autoradiography with concurrent confirmation of morphine-induced analgesia measured by tail-flick latency to noxious heat. Within the limits of resolution of this technique, doses of morphine sufficient to inhibit the tail-flick reflex had no significant effect on glucose metabolism in structures implicated in the modulation of pain.

Effect of Cuneiformis Nucleus Inactivation by Lidocaine Microinjection on the Analgesic Response of Morphine in Rats

The present study was performed to evaluate the analgesic effect of morphine microinjection into the cuneiformis nucleus (CnF) and the effect of inactivation of this area by lidocaine on pain modulation. Rats were anaesthetized by thiopental (45-60 mg/kg/i.p.) and placed in a stereotaxic instrument, and then a guide cannula was implanted just one mm above the CnF. Following surgery and recovery...
