1.	Hyperalgesia 12/01/2023 - "Furthermore, we demonstrated that intrathecal microinjection of PACAP 6-38 (0.125, 0.5, 2 μg) dose-dependently ameliorated the mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia in 6-OHDA rats. " 05/01/2008 - "Taken together, these data demonstrate that blockade of the PAC(1)-R/PACAP complex by PACAP 6-38 can effectively attenuate thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia associated with inflammatory and neuropathic pain states. " 05/01/2008 - "PACAP 6-38 potently reduced mechanical allodynia in a neuropathic spinal nerve ligation model (77% +/- 15% maximal effect at 12 nmol, P < .01) and was also effective in reducing thermal hyperalgesia in the carrageenan model of inflammatory pain (89% +/- 17% maximal effect at 12 nmol, P < .01). "
2.	Pain (Aches) 05/01/2008 - "To better understand the role of PAC(1)-Rs in pain, PACAP 6-38, a PAC(1)-R antagonist, was evaluated in several inflammatory and neuropathic pain models after intrathecal (i.t.) administration. " 05/01/2008 - "Although nociceptive responses were also attenuated with PACAP 6-38 in a dose-dependent manner in models of chronic inflammatory and persistent pain, no effects on motor performance were observed at analgesic doses. " 05/01/2008 - "PACAP 6-38 potently reduced mechanical allodynia in a neuropathic spinal nerve ligation model (77% +/- 15% maximal effect at 12 nmol, P < .01) and was also effective in reducing thermal hyperalgesia in the carrageenan model of inflammatory pain (89% +/- 17% maximal effect at 12 nmol, P < .01). "
3.	Tachycardia (Tachyarrhythmias) 01/13/2016 - "PACAP or microglia antagonists (50 nl) (PACAP(6-38), 15 pmol; minocycline 10 mg/ml) microinjected bilaterally into RVLM had no effect on seizure-induced sympathoexcitation, pressor responses, or tachycardia but abolished the prolongation of QT interval. " 01/01/2011 - "The principal findings are that 1) the proportion of PACAP mRNA-containing C1 neurons is not different between normotensive and hypertensive rats, 2) intrathecal PACAP-38 causes a strain-dependent, sustained sympathoexcitation and tachycardia with variable effects on mean arterial pressure in normotensive and hypertensive rats, and 3) PACAP(6-38) effectively attenuated the effects of intrathecal PACAP-38, but had no effect alone, on any baseline variables. "
4.	Weight Gain 01/01/2013 - "In conclusion, PACAP 6-38 acts as a functional CARTp antagonist in vivo and blocks its effects on feeding and short term weight gain. "
5.	Neuralgia (Stump Neuralgia) 05/01/2008 - "To better understand the role of PAC(1)-Rs in pain, PACAP 6-38, a PAC(1)-R antagonist, was evaluated in several inflammatory and neuropathic pain models after intrathecal (i.t.) administration. " 05/01/2008 - "Taken together, these data demonstrate that blockade of the PAC(1)-R/PACAP complex by PACAP 6-38 can effectively attenuate thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia associated with inflammatory and neuropathic pain states.
