The effect of opioid receptor antagonists on the antinociception of (pyr)apelin-13. (A,B) The influence of non-selective opioid receptor antagonist naloxone (NLX, 2 mg/kg) on the antinociceptive effect induced by (pyr)apelin-13 (20 mg/kg) in the formalin test. (C,D) The influence of selective KOR antagonist, nor-Binaltorphimine (nor-BNI, 10 mg/kg), on the antinociceptive effect induced by (pyr)apelin-13 in the formalin test. The NLX or nor-BNI was i.v. co-administrated with (pyr)apelin-13, respectively. Values are presented as means ± SEM. n = 7–10/group. **p < 0.01 vs. control; #p < 0.05 and ##p < 0.01 vs. (pyr)apelin-13 treated group.
