6. On cholecystokinin-opioid interaction in the spinal dorsal horn following peripheral nerve injury and inflammation
Sammanfattning : The peptide cholecystokinin (CCK) antagonizes opioid-induced analgesia. Conversely, antagonists of CCK receptors enhance the analgesic effect of opioids. Together, these results support a role for CCK as an anti-opioid peptide in pain mechanisms. LÄS MER
7. Treatment of pain behavior after spinal cord injury in rats with special emphasis on the role of adenosine receptors
Sammanfattning : Central pain is a form of neuropathic pain occurring after injury or dysfunction in the central nervous system, including the spinal cord. Allodynia (pain to innocuous stimuli) to mechanical and cold stimulation is a common feature of central pain and it is often resistant to treatment. LÄS MER

9. The role of adenosine and its receptor subtypes in nociception and neuropathic pain
Sammanfattning : As neurotransmitter/modulator, adenosine plays an important role in nociceptive processing. Adenosine receptors are G-protein coupled and four receptor subtypes, A1, A2A, A2B and A3 have been identified. It is well established that adenosine and its receptor agonists produce primarily antinociceptive effect in animals and humans. LÄS MER
