title: [Maternal behavior after the administration of morphine or naloxone to pregnant female rats and the pain sensitivity and brain mu-opioid receptors in the progeny].
abstract: Morphine or naloxone injected twice a day (10 mg/kg/day) to rat females from 15 to 18 days of gestation had no effect on their litter size or body weight of pups. Time necessary for the female to bring pups into the nest from the opposite end of the cage, that is a characteristic of maternal care and negatively correlated with the mean body weight of the pup in the litter, did not change after treatment with drugs during gestation. Newborns treated with mu-opioid receptor ligands during intrauterine development had an elevated number of 3H-naloxone binding sites in the brain. However, the number of 3H-naloxone binding sites on the 9 and 16 days of life, as well as pain thresholds under electric stimulation of the tail at a month age were equal in these rats and offsprings of the intact or saline treated mothers.
