title: [Use-dependent inhibition of C-axon multimodal units of cat skin by lidocaine and N-propyl-ajmaline].
abstract: Subcutaneous application of local anesthetic drug lidocaine and cardiac antiarrhythmic n-propyl-ajmaline produced the reversible use-dependent inhibition of feline polymodal mechano-heat C-fiber cutaneous sensory units (CMH-units) excited by moderate noxious mechanical stimulus. The discharge rate as well as the number of evoked spikes of polymodal sensory units treated with the drugs decreased below the values observed under noxious chemical excitation of CMH-units. The repeated mechano-stimulation with 5 to 30 sec interval between stimuli produced complete though a reversible block of the treated units. Quaternary amine n-propyl-ajmaline induced use-dependent inhibition of CMH-units in lower concentrations than tertiary amine lidocaine. The use-dependent inhibition of CMH-units is discussed in connection with nociception and local analgesia.
