Abstract: | The effect of morphine on responses to sustained mild pain was tested in male white rats with gonads and (or) adrenals removed. Morphine was ineffective in gonadectomized rats; adrenalectomy alone increased the effectiveness of morphine over that in sham-operated controls. Morphine antinociception may involve some actions of endogenous steroids. |
