Title: Possible involvement of the amydaloid complex in morphine analgesia as studied by electrolytic lesions in rats
Abstract: The analgesic effects of morphine (5 mg/kg i.p.) were studied in biamygalectomized rats. (1) Using the tail-flick test neither withdrawal latencies nor morphine time-course and efficacy were affected by the lesions. (2) The threshold for vocalization to electrical stimulation of the tail was greatly increased in lesioned rats; however, statistical analysis revealed no significant change in the analgesic efficacy of morphine.
