Abstract：
:Ketoprofen is a non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) which provides effective analgesia in situations of pain provoked by tissue inflammation. However, the location of its analgesic effects, (peripheral tissues versus central nervous system), have not been clearly identified and separated. In the present study the effectiveness of ketoprofen was examined in two different types of experiments: (i) Open field behavioural tests in conscious rats, and (ii) spinal cord nociceptive reflexes (single motor units) activated by electrical and thermal stimulation in chloralose anaesthetised rats. The experiments were performed in rats with carrageenan-induced inflammation of one hindpaw, or of one knee joint. The administration of ketoprofen significantly inhibited the reduction of exploratory movements caused by inflammation in open field experiments. Ketoprofen was also effective in depressing reflex activity evoked by electrical and noxious thermal stimulation of the skin, either in inflamed tissue or in normal tissue of monoarthritic animals. It was also effective in the reduction of reflex wind-up; a phenomenon in which the activity of spinal cord neurones increases progressively with high frequency electrical stimulation. We therefore conclude that ketoprofen has central as well as peripheral analgesic activity.
