Abstract

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the antinociceptive potential of four novel pyrazoline methyl ester compounds on chemical and thermal models of pain in mice. The following 5-trihalomethylated-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole methyl ester compounds were tested: 3-methyl-5-trifluoromethyl-(MPF3), 4-methyl-5-trifluoromethyl-(MPF4), 3-methyl-5-trichloromethyl-(MPCl3) and 4-methyl-5-trichloromethyl-(MPCl4). MPF3, MPF4, MPCl3 and MPCl4 (0.03-1.0 mmol/kg) given intraperitoneally decreased neurogenic and inflammatory phases of nociception in the formalin test. Moreover, MPF3, MPF4, MPCl3, MPCl4 (0.1-1.0 mmol/kg) and dipyrone (1.5 mmol/kg) also produced a dose-dependent antinociceptive effect in the hot-plate test. However, MPF3, MPF4, MPCl3 and MPCl4 did not impair motor coordination in the rotarod test or spontaneous locomotion in the open field test. The antinociceptive effect of MPF4 (1.0 mmol/kg, i.p.) was reversed by the opioid receptor antagonist naloxone (2 mg/kg, i.p.), but not by the alpha(2)-adrenergic receptor antagonist yohimbine (0.15 mg/kg, i.p.) or by p-chlorophenylalanine ethyl ester (PCPA, 300 mg/kg, i.p.) treatment. In contrast to morphine (5 mg/kg, i.p.), MPF4 given daily for up to 8 days did not generate a toler...Continue Reading

Adrenergic Receptors: Trafficking

Adrenergic receptor trafficking is an active physiological process where adrenergic receptors are relocated from one region of the cell to another or from one type of cell to another. Discover the latest research on adrenergic receptor trafficking here.
