Nicotine (0.16--0.50 mg/kg, SC) was found to exert a potent antinociceptive action on thermal stimuli as measured by the tail-flick test. This antinociceptive action of nicotine could be blocked by centrally active nicotinic or muscarinic blockers implicating both classes of cholinergic receptors in
The effects of nicotine on bar-pressing behaviour in the rat are blocked by meeamylamine. The depressant phase of the effect is blocked by atropine, supporting the conclusion that this depression is mediated by released acetylcholine. The quaternary compounds chlorisondamine and atropine methylnitra
Effects of the (-)- and (+)-isomers of N6-(phenylisopropyl)-adenosine (PIA) were studied in rats trained to respond under fixed-interval and fixed-ratio schedules of food reinforcement. Both isomers of PIA decreased response rates; however, the (-)-isomer decreased response rates at doses as low as
