Microinjection of the dopamine receptor agonist apomorphine, and to a lesser extent dopamine itself, into the nucleus raphe magnus increased tail flick latency in conscious rats. The hypoalgesia was dependent on the integrity of catecholamine-containing pathways originating near the third ventricle and was diminished by systemic depletion of hydroxytryptamine. No simple neuronal circuitry could explain all the effects observed.
