概要 The neurotransmitters serotonin (5-HT) and noradrenaline (NA) have important roles in suppressing nociceptive transmission in the spinal cord. In the present study, we determined the efficacy and nature of the antihypersensitivity effects of milnacipran, a 5-HT and NA reuptake inhibitor (SNRI), in the spinal cord in a rat model of postoperative pain. Sprague-Dawley rats were used in all experiments. An incision was made on the plantar aspect of the hind paw. Mechanical hypersensitivity was measured by determining the withdrawal threshold to von Frey filaments applied to the paw. Drugs were administered intrathecally 24 h after paw incision. Microdialysis studies of the dorsal horn of the lumbar spinal cord were also performed to measure 5-HT and NA levels after systemic injection of milnacipran. Milnacipran (1-30 mu g) produced dose-dependent antihypersensitivity effects. The effect lasted 6 h after the 30-mu g injection. Doses of 30 mu g or less produced no abnormal behavior. The peak antihypersensitivity effect of 10 mu g of milnacipran was blocked by intrathecal pretreatment with antagonists of the mu 2-adrenoceptor (idazoxan; 30 mu g) or 5-HT receptors (methysergide; 30 mu g).
