Abstract
Serum prostaglandin E (PGE) levels were measured in rats immediately following electrical stimulation of the mesencephalic periaqueductal gray (PAG) region and the nucleus raphe magnus (NRM) and compared to controls. An additional group received aspirin prior to PAG stimulation. A significant increase in serum PGE levels was found after stimulation of the PAG, but not the NRM. Aspirin inhibited the stimulation-induced increases in PGE.Entities:
