The NK1 receptor mediates both the hyperalgesia and the resistance to morphine in mice lacking noradrenalineLuc Jasmin
Department of Neurological Surgery, University of California, San Francisco, CA 94143 0112, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 99:1029-34. 2002..We conclude that when unopposed by NA, substance P acting at the NK1 receptor causes chronic thermal hyperalgesia, and that the reduced opioid efficacy associated with a lack of NA is due to increased NK1-receptor stimulation...

Department of Neurological Surgery, University of California San Francisco, 505 Parnassus, Box 0112, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA
Pain 102:39-49. 2003..These findings suggest that the mechanism underlying KA-induced hyperalgesia is a long-term dysfunction of CNS areas that are activated by vagal afferents and involved in descending control of spinal nociceptive neurons... - Dopaminergic input to GABAergic neurons in the rostral agranular insular cortex of the ratPeter T Ohara
