24 hour tolerance was calculated using the highest dose of the dose-response curve on day 1 and repeated on day 2. If there was no significant difference between the two days the animals were said to be not tolerant. Compounds 9+10 (equimolar dose), 1-5 were administered at 2500, 250, 1000 and 125 pmol per mouse.
As there was 47% antinociception 24 hours after the initial 15 pmol/mouse (i.c.v.) dose, a 24 hour tolerance test could not be completed. However, after 48 hours the antinociception had returned to baseline and, at this time tolerance was measured by injection of a subsequent 15 pmol/mouse.
NS: not significant; compound 10 did not show any antinociceptive activity (only 20-30%) when given at 250 or 2500 pmol per mouse.
Not applicable.
Doses were based on a 1:1 mixture of compounds 9+10.
