摘要：
Changes in the levels of muscarinic M-4 receptors in spinal cord of acute and chronic arthritic rats (animal models of pain) were studied by receptor autoradiography using muscarinic M-4 receptor subtype selective ligand. Arthritis was induced in female Lewis rats by single intradermal injection of heat-killed Mycobacterium butyricum and sacrificed 12 days (acute group) and 30 days (chronic and control groups) after induction of arthritis. Our results demonstrate significant reduction in the level of M-4 receptors in the spinal cord (Rexed laminae I-X) of acute and chronic arthritic rats compared to controls. These findings suggest that the muscarinic M-4 receptor subtype may be involved in cholinergic mechanisms of analgesia. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
