Abstract | BACKGROUND: METHODS: RESULTS: Acute repeated injections of fentanyl dose-dependently induced mechanical hyperalgesia, which reached a peak at the 1st day and persisted for 1-4 days postinjection. This hyperalgesia could be partly or totally prevented by the pretreatment of either parecoxib or SC51089. Consistently, the levels of spinal COX-2 mRNA and PGE2 were also dose-dependently increased, reaching a peak at the first day and persisting for 2 days postinjection. Pretreatment with parecoxib could block the increase in spinal PGE2 and had no effects on spinal COX-2 and EP-1R mRNA. Fentanyl injection enhanced incision-induced mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia. CONCLUSIONS:
