概要 | Acupuncture is widely used to relieve pain; however, the mechanism underlying electroacupuncture analgesia (EAA) during inflammatory pain is unclear. We investigated whether endogenous peripheral opioid receptors participated in EAA during hyperalgesia elicited by carrageenan-induced inflammation. Moreover, we investigated which subtype of opioid receptor was involved in EAA. These findings suggest that peripheral μ, δ and κ receptors on peripheral nerve terminals are activated by EA, although there is a time difference among these activations. |
