چکیده مقاله:

This research was done to test the effect of Rosa damascena essential oil on withdrawal signsof naloxone-precipitated morphine in male mice. Morphine dependence was induced by injection(IP) three times daily at doses of 50, 50 and 75 mg/kg, respectively, for 3 days. On day 4,after the last administration of morphine, Rosa damascena essential oil was administered atdifferent concentrations (5, 2 and 40%, IP) 30 min before administration of naloxone (5 mg/kg,IP). The following actions were taken as signs of withdrawal and records taken for jumping asa number and scores of 0 to 3 were given for incidences of grooming, teeth chattering, rearing,writing, diarrhea, wet dog shakes and climbing during a 30 min period. Results showed thatdifferent concentrations of Rosa damascena essential oil significantly reduced signs of morphinewithdrawal compared to the control group in terms of number of jumps (p < 0.05 and p < 0.01),grooming, teeth chattering, rearing, climbing, wet dog shakes and writhing, but not for diarrhea(p < 0.05). In conclusion it seems that GABAergic activity induced by flavonoids from Rosadamascena essential oil can alleviate signs of morphine withdrawal, but further studies need to bedone to better understand this mechanism.

Acute and Chronic Effects of Nitrendipine on Naloxone Precipitated Morphine Withdrawal in Mice

There is growing evidence indicating that neuronal calcium channels play an important role in the mechanism of morphine dependence. In this study, the effects of acute and chronic administration of nitrendipine on naloxone precipitated morphine withdrawal signs were investigated. Mice were rendered dependent to morphine by subcutaneous injection of morphine over a period of 5 days. In chronic s...
