Abstract
Rats with chemical sympathectomy, induced either at neonatal age (long-term sympathectomy) or in adult animals (short-term sympathectomy) by guanethidine or by 6-hydroxydopamine, were used to determine the contribution of sympathetic noradrenergic fibres to afferent neuron-mediated responses and to non-neurogenic inflammation in the rat. Following long-term sympathectomy with 6-hydroxydopamine there was a 66% depletion of noradrenaline in the paw skin. This was accompanied by a 20-53% increase in the levels of sensory neuropeptides in the paw skin and sciatic nerve. A hypersensitivity towards heat stimuli was observed in the tail immersion test. "
