title: [Neurochemical mechanisms of the analgesic effect of L-DOPA].
abstract: Experiments on alert rats have shown that, with pre-inhibition of peripheral DOPA-decarboxylase, L-DOPA suppresses behavioral nociceptive reactions without changing hemodynamic ones. Analgetic effect of L-DOPA appears to be related to the stimulation of brain postsynaptic alpha1-adrenoceptors and the drug action on opioidergic systems.
