Research Abstract |
In the rat spinal contusion model, RBII-52 expression and serotonin 2C receptor variant levels were altered at the caudal site of the injured spine. In chronic constriction injury to the infraorbital nerve of rats by loose ligatures, intrathecal administration of the serotonin 2C receptor agonists produced antiallodynic effects. In chronic constriction injury to the infraorbital nerve of rats by loose ligatures, intrathecal administration of both the α1-adrenoceptor agonist and the α2-adrenoceptor agonist produced antiallodynic effects.
