Naloxone-reversible peripheral electroanalgesia in intact and spinal rats.

TLDR
Peripheral electrical stimulation of the rat produced a "dose-dependent" analgesia both in intact and in spinal animals, and Naloxone, a narcotic antagonist, almost completely reversed this analgesia.

A perceptual-defensive-recuperative model of fear and pain

TL;DR: A model of fear and pain is presented in which the two are assumed to activate totally different classes of behavior, and it is assumed that fear triggers the endorphin mechanism, thereby inhibiting pain motivation and recuperative behaviors that might compete with effective defensive behavior.

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation: Basic science mechanisms and clinical effectiveness

TL;DR: TENS is a noninvasive modality that is easy to apply with relatively few contraindications, however, the clinical efficacy of TENS will remain equivocal until the publication of sufficient numbers of high quality, randomized, controlled clinical trials.

The influence of naloxone on analgesia produced by peripheral conditioning stimulation.

TL;DR: To see whether the analgesia experienced by the chronic pain patients is mediated via links utilizing endorphins, the opiate antagonist naloxone was administered to these patients under double-blind conditions, saline being used as a placebo, and it was found that 6 out of 10 patients receiving acupuncture-like stimulation but none out of10 patients receiving high frequency stimulation of skin nerves, reported an inhibition of the stimulation-produced analgesia by nAloxone.

Spinal Blockade of Opioid Receptors Prevents the Analgesia Produced by TENS in Arthritic Rats

TL;DR: This study investigated the role of mu, delta, and kappa opioid receptors in antihyperalgesia produced by low- and high-frequency TENS by using an animal model of inflammation to address the neurophysiological basis for the actions of TENS.

Control of Nociceptive Transmission in the Spinal Cord

TL;DR: Soldering method comprises placing a cadmium-zinc-lead solder on a copper base and exposing the solder joint to about 200 DEG C. for at least one hour to produce a copper-cadmium -zinc ternary interface barrier layer which inhibits migration.

Analgesia mediated by a direct spinal action of narcotics.

TL;DR: Narcotic analgetics administered directly into the spinal subarachnoid space of the rat via a chronically inserted catheter produce a potent analgesia that can be antagonized by naloxone.

Immunohistochemical studies using antibodies to leucine-enkephalin: Initial observations on the nervous system of the rat

TL;DR: Findings provide morphological support for the hypothesis that enkephalins are contained in nerve terminals close to opiate receptors as revealed by biochemical techniques.

Central nervous system mechanisms of analgesia.

TL;DR: The intent of this review is to examine and synthesize the extensive progress that has been made in the last few years describing the anatomical, physiological and neurohumoral substrates of neural systems which modulate pain perception.

Antagonism of stimulation-produced analgesia by naloxone, a narcotic antagonist

TL;DR: Analgesia produced by focal electrical stimulation of the brain is partially reversed by the narcotic antagonist naloxone and it is suggested that stimulation-produced analgesia may result, at least in part, from release of an endogenous, narcotic-like substance.
