Abstract:
Our findings have shown that both supraspinal activation and blockade of alpha-2-adrenergic receptors change bioelectrical response of studied brain structures on the nociceptive stimulation, among other things by the modulation of hippocampal activity. The mechanism of this effect remains to be established.
