title: [Antinociceptive properties of the 5-HT3 receptor antagonist in the model of inflammatory pain in rats of different age with prenatal deficit of serotonine and under stress].
abstract: The role of peripheral 5-HT3 receptors in the nociceptive behavioral response and the effect of the 5-HT3 antagonist ondansetron on indices of acute and tonic pain were investigated in the formalin test in 25- and 90-day-old Wistar male rats. The experimental rats were prenatally exposed to 5-HT depletion (a single injection ofparachlorophenilalanine 400 mg/kg/2 ml, i. p.; ICN, USA to the dams on day 9 of pregnancy) and to stress (dams immobilization during the last week of pregnancy). Antinociceptive effects of ondansetron in the rats with both prenatal 5-HT deficiency and stress (experimental rats) and prenatal injection of saline solution and stress (control rats) were more obvious in the younger animals. Prenatal 5-HT deficiency attenuated the antinociceptive effect of ondansetron in licking patterns in the younder age group in acute pain, and in adults--in tonic pain. Thus, the data obtained in the rats with prenatal 5-HT deficiency and stress indicate involvement of 5-HT3 receptors in mediation of prolonged pain in the formalin test, and antinociceptive effect of ondansetron which is attenuated in animals with prenatal 5-HT deficiency and specifically depends on rat's age.
