摘要
We examined and compared the effects of intrathecal (i.t.) endomorphin-1 and endomorphin-2 on the nociceptive flexor reflex in decerebrate, spinalized, unanesthetized rats. I.t. endomorphin-1 and -2 induced a dose-dependent depression of the flexor reflex with an initial brief facilitatory effect. The magnitude of reflex facilitation and depression was similar between endomorphin-1 and -2, but the duration of depression was significantly longer for endomorphin-1 than endomorphin-2. The results suggested that the spinal antinociceptive effects of endomorphin-1 and -2 are similar, with endomorphin-1 being more resistant to enzymatic degradation.
