1 | The aims of this study were to determine whether intracerebroventricular injection of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) elevates morphine levels in the rat brain and whether prophylactic administration of fentanyl blocks metabolic responses induced by intracerebroventricular injection of TNF-alpha because of a reduction of morphine levels in the brain. | Morphine | tumor necrosis factor | Rattus norvegicus |
2 | The aims of this study were to determine whether intracerebroventricular injection of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) elevates morphine levels in the rat brain and whether prophylactic administration of fentanyl blocks metabolic responses induced by intracerebroventricular injection of TNF-alpha because of a reduction of morphine levels in the brain. | Morphine | tumor necrosis factor | Rattus norvegicus |
3 | Morphine levels in the brain were increased from 648 to 1,134 fmol/g at 30 min after intracerebroventricular injection of TNF-alpha (P < 0.05 vs. control). | Morphine | tumor necrosis factor | Rattus norvegicus |
4 | In conclusion, prophylactic administration of fentanyl prevented an increase in morphine levels in the brain induced by intracerebroventricular injection of TNF-alpha, leading to a reduction in stress hormone levels and subsequent metabolic responses. | Morphine | tumor necrosis factor | Rattus norvegicus |
