Inhibition of strychnine-allodynia is mediated by spinal adenosine A1- but not A2-receptors in the rat. Brain research, 1998, Oct-12, Volume: 808, Issue:1 Intrathecal (i.t.) strychnine produces localized allodynia in the rat without peripheral or central nerve injury. Intrathecal CPA (A1-selective agonist) and CGS-21680 (A2-selective agonist) dose-dependently inhibited strychnine-allodynia but with a 50-fold difference in potency (0.02-0.07 vs. 2.7-3.1 microgram, respectively). The anti-allodynic effect of CPA and CGS was completely blocked by pretreatment with the A1-selective antagonist, DPCPX (10 microgram i.t. ), but unaffected by the A2-selective antagonist, CSC (2 microgram i.t. ). The results indicate that spinal A1-, but not A2-, receptors modulate abnormal somatosensory input in the strychnine model, and suggest a difference in spinal purinergic modulation in injury vs. non-injury models of allodynia.
