    Summary
    It has been shown that endogenous opioid dermorphin induces effective analgesia after intranasal injection to fish (0.02-0.20 mg/kg) and rats (0.005 mg/kg).

  3. 03AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In the studied vertebrates, dermorphin analgesia persisted after olfactory and trigeminal denervation.

    Summary
    Maintenance of dermorphin analgesia after olfactory and trigeminal denervation indicates that the analgetic effect is not realized via the olfactory receptors or free terminals of the trigeminal nerve.
