摘要
Effects of morphine withdrawal on the levels of preproenkephalin (PPE) mRNA in the area from lateral to ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (FAG) were studied in rats by quantitative in situ hybridization. PPE mRNA in the rostral FAG was decreased by naloxone-precipitated morphine withdrawal but not affected by spontaneous morphine withdrawal. PPE mRNA in the caudal FAG was increased by both spontaneous and naloxone-precipitated morphine withdrawal.
