Background: This study evaluated the antinociceptive action of alpha-(phenylalanyl) acetophenone (PSAP) in mice. Methods: Evaluated whether the serotonergic, adrenergic and dopaminergic systems are involved in PSAP antinociceptive activity. PSAP was administered intragastrically (ig) 30 min prior to formalin or glutamate test and compared with a standard drug, meloxicam (10 mg/kg, ig). Results: The treatment with PSAP (10-50 mg/kg) caused inhibition in the neurogenic phase and reduced the paw oedema caused by intraplantar (ipl) injection of formalin. PSAP (1-50 mg/kg) decreased the nociceptive response in the inflammatory phase of the formalin test and in licking behaviour triggered by glutamate at doses of 0.1-50 mg/kg. The antinociceptive effect of PSAP (1 mg/kg) was abolished when the animals were pre-treated with prazosin (alpha(1)-adrenergic antagonist receptor, 0.15 mg/kg, intraperitoneally, ip), yohimbine (alpha(2)-adrenergic antagonist receptor, 1 mg/kg, ip) and sulpiride (D-2/D-3 dopamine antagonist, 5 mg/kg, ip). The antinociceptive effect of PSAP (1 mg/kg) was not abolished by WAY100635 (5-HT1A-selective serotoninergic antagonist, 0.7 mg/kg, ip), ketanserin (selective antagonist of serotonergic 5-HT2A/2C, 0.3 mg/kg, ip), ondansetron (5-HT3 selective serotoninergic antagonist, 0.5 mg/ kg, ip) or SCH23390 (D-1 dopamine receptor antagonist, 0.05 mg/kg, ip) in the glutamate test. No changes in locomotor activity were observed in the animals treated with PSAP and/or antagonists in the open field test. Conclusion: These results showed the antinociceptive action of PSAP in formalin and glutamate tests and the involvement of the dopaminergic and adrenergic systems in its antinociceptive activity.
