Comparison between L-NAME + saline, L-arginine + saline and OXT + Saline groups with saline + saline group in the acute phase of the tail flick test. (A): MPE (Maximum possible effect) (B): AUC (area under the curve). Values are means±SEM (n=12). ***P<0.001 compared to saline + Saline group; ⁺⁺⁺P<0.01 compared between OXT + saline and L-arginine + Saline; ^###P<0.001 compared between OXT + saline and L-NAME + saline group. Statistical analyses were made using the one-way ANOVA followed by the Tukey's test Post hoc
