Analgesic activities of dermorphin (DM), [DPro6]-DM, and their C-terminal tripeptides were comparatively studied.
Analgesic activity was evaluated in tail flick, hot plate, tail pinch, formalin, and acetic acid writhing tests describing different levels of organization of pain sensitivity.
In this study, Dermorphin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Dermorphin.
