ABSTRACT
Noradrenaline (NA) and serotonin (5-HT) induce nociception and antinociception. This antagonistic effect can be explained by the dose and type of activated receptors. We investigated the existence of synergism between the noradrenergic and serotonergic systems during peripheral antinociception. The paw pressure test was performed in mice that had increased sensitivity by intraplantar injection of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). Noradrenaline (80 ng) administered intraplantarly induced an antinociceptive effect, that was reversed by the administration of selective antagonists of serotoninergic receptors 5-HT1B isamoltan, 5-HT1D BRL15572, 5-HT2A ketanserin, 5-HT3 ondansetron, but not by selective receptor antagonist 5-HT7 SB-269970. The administration of escitalopram, a serotonin reuptake inhibitor, potentiated the antinociceptive effect at a submaximal dose of NA. These results, indicate the existence of synergism between the noradrenergic and serotonergic systems in peripheral antinociception in mice.
