Barbosa, André Luiz dos ReisThe aim of this study was to investigate a possible involvement of the opioids, endocannabinoids and NO/cGMP/PKG/K+ATP pathway in the antinociception of the Crohn´s experimental model in hypernociception induced by carragenan ou PGE2. Colitis was induced in the male Wistar rats (200-250) by intracolonic administration of 20 mg of 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) in 50% ethanol, ethanol 50% or an equiv...
