In the arcuate nucleus of hypothalamus (ARC), galaninergic fibers form synaptic contacts with proopiomelanocortin neurons, which are involved in pain modulation. The present study assessed the role of exogenous and endogenous galanin in the modulation of nociception in the ARC of rats. The hindpaw withdrawal latency (HWL) to thermal and mechanical stimulation was assessed by the hot-plate test and the Randall Selitto Test. Intra-ARC injection of galanin dose-dependently increased the HWLs in intact rats, indicating an antinociceptive role of exogenous galanin in the ARC. The antinociceptive effect of galanin was blocked by following intra-ARC injection of galantide, a putative galanin receptor antagonist, suggesting that the antinociceptive effect of galanin is mediated by galanin receptors. Moreover, intra-ARC injection of galanin increased the HWL in rats with inflammation. Intra-ARC administration of galantide alone reduced the HWLs in rats with inflammation, while there were no influences of galantide on the HWL in intact rats. Taken together, the results show that galanin has an antinociceptive role in the ARC of intact rats and rats with inflammation.

The present study investigated the effect of diazepam binding inhibitor (DBI) on nociception in the central nervous system of rats. There were dose-dependent increases in hindpaw withdrawal latency (HWL) to noxious thermal and mechanical stimulation after intrathecal injection of 1, 5 or 10μg of DBI in rats, indicating a DBI-induced anti-nociceptive effect at the spinal levels of rats. Furthermore, it was found that there were no significant influences of intrathecal co-administration of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) on the intrathecal DBI-induced increases in HWLs of rats. Intracerebroventricular administration of 1, 10 or 20μg of DBI also induced dose-dependent increases in HWL to thermal and mechanical stimulation in rats, suggesting an anti-nociceptive effect of DBI in the brain. Moreover, there were no significant influences of intracerebroventricular co-administration of 2μg of GABA on the intracerebroventricular DBI-induced increases in HWL of rats. The results of the present study demonstrated that DBI played anti-nociceptive effects in the central nervous system of rats.

【期刊论文】Involvement of CGRP and CGRP1 receptor in nociception in the nucleus accumbens of rats

The present study was performed to investigate the role of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and its antagonist CGRP8-37 on nociception in the nucleus accumbens of rats. Hindpaw withdrawal latencies (HWLs) to noxious stimulation induced by hot plate and Randall Selitto tests were measured. The HWL to both thermal and mechanical stimulation increased significantly after intra-nucleus accumbens administration of 0.5 or 1nmol of CGRP, but not 0.1nmol, indicating that CGRP plays an anti-nociceptive effect in the nucleus accumbens of rats. The anti-nociceptive effect induced by intra-nucleus accumbens administration of 1nmol of CGRP was blocked significantly by following intra-nucleus accumbens administration of 1nmol of CGRP8-37, a selective antagonist of CGRP1 receptor. Furthermore, the HWLs to both thermal and mechanical stimulation decreased significantly after intra-nucleus accumbens administration of 0.02, 0.1 and 0.5nmol of CGRP8-37 alone. The hyperalgesic effect of intra-nucleus accumbens administration of CGRP8-37 lasted for more than 60min after the injection, suggesting that CGRP1 receptor is involved in anti-nociception in the nucleus accumbens of rats. The results indicate that CGRP and CGRP1 receptor have important roles in nociceptive modulation in the nucleus accumbens of rats.

The present study was performed in rats with experimentally induced mononeuropathy after left common sciatic nerve ligation. The hindpaw withdrawal latencies to thermal and mechanical stimulation increased significantly after intra-periaqueductal grey injection of 2 or 3nmol, but not 1nmol of galanin in rats with mononeuropathy. Intraperitoneal administration of 4.5mg/kg morphine induced significant increases in hindpaw withdrawal latencies to both noxious stimulation, which were attenuated by following intra-periaqueductal grey injection of 2nmol of the galanin antagonist galantide. Furthermore, the antinociceptive effect induced by intra-periaqueductal grey injection of 26.6nmol of morphine was attenuated significantly by following intra-periaqueductal gray administration of 2nmol of galantide. The results demonstrated that in periaqueductal grey galanin plays an antinociceptive role in rats with mononeuropathy and galanin is involved in the mechanisms of opioid-induced antinociception.
