Source sentences
Intraperitoneal injection of either ZnCl(2) (100 microM), thymulin (5 microg/100 microl), or morphine (2 mg/kg/100 microl) reversed the ET-induced hyperalgesia and suppressed gelatinase activity.
1 context sentence(design, population, supporting numbers)
The goal of this study is to describe the regulation of gelatinases during endotoxin mediated local inflammation, induced by intra plantar endotoxin (ET; 1.25 microg/50 microl) injection in Balb/c mice, and to correlate that with hyperalgesia.
