Effect of cold acclimation and repeated swimming on opioid and nonopioid swim stress-induced analgesia in selectively bred mice.

Abstract excerpt

Swiss-Webster mice selectively bred for high swim stress-induced analgesia (SSIA) were exposed to continuous ambient cold (5 degrees C) for 6 weeks or to daily 3-min swims for 14 consecutive days either in 20 or 32 degrees C water. Thereafter, mice subjected to the particular procedure were injected intraperitoneally with 10 mg/kg of naltrexone HCl and were tested for modification of the opioid and nonopioid...
