Effects of 0.5 μg (solid) and 5.0 μg (hatched) of intrathecal nicotine administrations on systolic blood pressure, heart rate and on the nocicefensive responses in control (saporin only) and sP-SAP (saporin-substance P conjugate) pretreated rats. All responses denote the maximum response measured during the 10 minute period following administration of each dose of the nicotinic agonist. The second dose of nicotine was administered 30 min following the initial dosing. Each value represents the mean ± SEM. **p<0.01 and ***p<0.001 as compared to control rats for the specific dose as determined by two-tailed unpaired Student's t-test.
