Decreased oxidative stress in prehepatic portal hypertensive rat livers following the induction of diabetes.

abstract：:1. Electrolytic lesions were made in various brain regions of the rat, and the effects of these lesions on nociceptive threshold and the antinociceptive actions of morphine were tested using a shock titration technique. 2. Lesions in the medial thalamus, the periaqueductal grey area, or the caudate nucleus, had no eff...
