Abstract excerpt
The present study assessed the analgesic potency of morphine in 11 inbred mouse strains before and after chronic morphine treatment. Using the 49 degrees C tail-withdrawal test, significant strain differences in morphine AD(50) estimates derived from cumulative dose-response curves were noted prior to tolerance induction on Day 1. AD(50) estimates were reassessed on Day 4, after three daily systemic morphine...
