Anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive activities of glucagon-like peptides: evaluation of their actions on serotonergic, nitrergic, and opioidergic systems.

These finding indicated that the antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effect of GLP-1 was related to opioidergic system. Antinociceptive effect of GLP-2 was partially related to 5-HT3 serotonergic or opioidergic system in hotplate test. However, the anti-inflammatory effect of GLP-2 was not directly related to 5-HT3, NO or opioids.
