Abstract excerpt
Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) therapy induces analgesia in various conditions of pain in humans. In mice, HBO2 treatment evokes an acute antinociceptive response in the abdominal constriction test. To demonstrate the dependence of HBO2-induced antinociception on nitric oxide (NO), antinociceptive responsiveness to HBO2 was assessed after three different approaches that interfered with NO production. HBO2-induced...
