| Abstract | Exogenous ATP produces acute and localized pain in humans, and P2X receptor agonists elicit acute nociceptive behaviours in rodents following intradermal administration to the hindpaw. The predominant localization of P2X3 mRNA in sensory neurones has led to the hypothesis that activation of P2X3 and/or P2X2/3 receptors contributes to nociception. The local administration of the P2X receptor agonist, BzATP (100 – 1000 nmol paw−1, s.c.) into the rat hindpaw produced an acute (<15 min) paw flinching response that was similar to that observed in the acute phase of the formalin (5%) test. The co-administration of the potent P2X receptor antagonist, TNP-ATP (30 – 300 nmol paw−1), but not an inactive analogue, TNP-AMP, with BzATP into the rat hindpaw attenuated BzATP-induced nociception. Similarly, co-administration of TNP-ATP, but not TNP-AMP, with 5% formalin reduced both acute and persistent nociception in this test. Co-administration of cibacron blue (30 and 100 nmol paw−1), a selective allosteric enhancer of P2X3 and P2X2/3 receptor activation, with BzATP (30 and 100 nmol paw−1) into the rat hindpaw produced significantly greater nociception as compared to the algogenic effects of BzATP alone. Intradermal co-administration of cibacron blue (30 and 100 nmol paw−1) with formalin (1 and 2.5%) into the rat hindpaw also produced significantly greater nociceptive behaviour as compared to formalin alone. The ability of TNP-ATP and cibacron blue to respectively attenuate and enhance nociceptive responses elicited by exogenous BzATP and formalin provide further support for the hypothesis that activation of peripheral P2X3 containing channels contributes specifically to both acute and persistent nociception in the rat. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
