Abstract | BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: We first determined whether intrathecal (i.t.) DHEA or DHEAS injection was able to affect nociceptive thresholds to peripheral mechanical stimulation and subsequently examined whether this effect was mediated by sigma-1 or the GABA(A) receptors. KEY RESULTS: CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS:
