ICV cromakalim, a K+ channel opener, produced antinociception. This effect was completely antagonized by ICV glibenclamide, a selective adenosine triphosphate-sensitive K+ channel (KATP channel) blocker. Furthermore, direct opening of central KATP channels by ICV cromakalim increased the spinal noradrenaline (NA) turnover. On the other hand, the antinociception induced by ICV morphine (mu opioid agonist), but not ICV U-50,488H (kappa opioid agonist) was markedly potentiated by cromakalim. These findings suggest that the opening of central KATP channels may elicit the antinociceptive effect and activate the descending NAergic pathway, and central KATP channels play an important role as a modulator of the antinociception induced by mu agonists but not kappa agonists.

D009638 Norepinephrine Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the ADRENAL MEDULLA and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers, and of the diffuse projection system in the brain that arises from the LOCUS CERULEUS. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic.
