Endogenous noradrenergic tone controls symptoms of allodynia in the spinal nerve ligation model of neuropathic pain.

Abstract:

:Endogenous inhibitory controls were studied in the spinal nerve ligation model of neuropathic pain. Atipamezole, a selective alpha2-adrenoceptor antagonist, produced both mechanical and cold allodynia in those rats which had not developed clear neuropathic symptoms. The same doses (50 microg i.t. or 1 mg/kg s.c.) did not increase the severity of symptoms in rats which had developed them. The opioid receptor antagonist naloxone (20 microg i.t. or 1 mg/kg s.c.) had no effect on the neuropathic symptoms. These results indicate that mechanical and cold allodynia are under endogenous noradrenergic rather than opioidergic control in this model of neuropathic pain.
