Antinociception synergy between the peripheral and spinal sites of the heme oxygenase-carbon monoxide pathway

We have shown that the peripheral and spinal cord heme oxygenase (HO)-carbon monoxide (CO)-soluble guanylate cyclase-cGMP pathways play an important role in antinociception in the rat experimental formalin model. Our objective was to determine if there is synergism between peripheral (paw) and spina...
