Neurochemical evidence for the activation of the 'efferent' function of capsaicin-sensitive nerves by lowering of the pH in the guinea-pig urinary bladder.

abstract：:Repeated or sustained exposure to opioids can not only induce analgesia but also long lasting enhancements in pain sensitivity, a phenomenon reported clinically and in animals. In rats, opioid-induced abnormal pain can be readily measured following continued delivery of morphine and the recruitment of descending facil...
