Abstract

It is widely appreciated among clinicians and researches that sensitivity to pain and responses to analgesics are highly variable. In the process of discovery of new analgesic this phenomena should be taken into account. However, tendency to eliminate of any individual variability is visible even in preliminary stages of selection of drug candidates using animal tests. Over twenty years ago Sadowski et al. developed genetic mouse lines selectively bred for high and for low swim stress-induced analgesia (SSIA). These animal lines may well simulate human high and low sensitivity to both, pain and stress response.This communication will present different response to opioid peptide analogue AA2016 by mouse SSIA without any stressor. The possible reasons of observed differences in analgesic effects will be discussed.
