    Summary · context
    Prolyl-leucyl-glycinamide (MIF-1), the C-terminal tripeptide of oxytocin, and naloxone were administered intracranially (IC) to goldfish (Carassius auratus) in doses of 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0 and 10.0 mg/kg and compared to a diluent control group for their ability to reduce the effects of morphine (3…
    Summary · context
    Threshold levels of pain were determined by the voltage necessary to produce an agitated swimming response (ASR).
