The Endogenous Cannabinoid and the Nitricoxidergic Systems Differently Influence Heat and Cold Stress-Induced Analgesia

Stress-induced analgesia (SIA) is a well-known phenomenon, in which mechanisms of development opioid and non-opioid components take part. The endogenous cannabinoid system (ECS) takes part in the non-opioid pathways and modulates nociception. Nitric oxide (NO) is also proverbial to interfere with pa...

The Endogenous Cannabinoid and the Nitricoxidergic Systems Differently Influence Heat and Cold Stress-Induced Analgesia
