Beta-endorphin immunoreactivity in rat plasma: Variations in response to different physical stimuli

The effects of two nociceptive testing procedures and several physical stressors on plasma levels of beta-endorphin-like immunoreactivity (ß-END-LI) were compared in male rats. Tail flick analgesia testing did not significantly alter plasma ß-END-LI, whereas hot plate testing increased circulating ß...

Zusammenfassung:The effects of two nociceptive testing procedures and several physical stressors on plasma levels of beta-endorphin-like immunoreactivity (ß-END-LI) were compared in male rats. Tail flick analgesia testing did not significantly alter plasma ß-END-LI, whereas hot plate testing increased circulating ß-END-LI 2.8 times control values (P
