    Notes: Abstract The intracerebroventricular (IC) administration of tyramine (TyA) induced a characteristic head-twitch response in mice pretreated with safrazine, a monoamine oxidase inhibitor. Safrazine-pretreated mice exhibited similar head-twitches following the IC treatment of serotonin (5-HT). The maximum dose of 5-HT which did not elicit head-twitches significantly potentiated TyA-induced head-twitches. Antiserotonergic drugs such as morphine and dimethothiazine antagonized TyA-induced head-twitches. A serotonergic denervator, 5,6-dihydroxytryptamine, potentiated head-twitch induced by TyA or 5-HT. Both TyA-induced and 5-HT-induced head-twitches were inhibited by dopamine and noradrenaline, while catecholaminergic denervators such as reserpine and 6-hydroxydopamine, and diethyldithiocarbamic acid, a dopamine-β-hydroxylase inhibitor, increased the TyA response. These results indicate that head-twitches induced by TyA may be mediated via the serotonergic system and may inhibit the catecholaminergic system.

    Notes: Summary Rats were treated with capsaicin (50 mg/kg, SC) either on the second day or on the second and third days of life. A significant attenuation of the responses to noxious stimuli was obtained in the capsaicin treated animals as measured by the hot-plate or paw pressure tests but not by the tail-flick test. Furthermore, neonatal capsaicin produced a significant reduction of response in the formalin test. Capsaicin reduced the reaction latency in rats with adjuvant arthritis as measured by the hot-plate and paw pressure tests, though capsaicin did not alter the overall time course of the response to Freund's adjuvant. Capsaicin also attenuated the weight loss or the decreased ambulatory and rearing behaviour which occurred in the control animals with adjuvant arthritis. It is suggested that neonatal treatment with capsaicin may relieve the responsiveness to longlasting nociceptive stimuli by adjuvant in rats.
