Exposure of rats to high levels of nitrous oxide (N 2 O) in oxygen (O 2) reduced body temperature in a concentration-related manner. The hypothermia was partly reversed by pretreatment with naloxone but not naltrexone. But in rats rendered tolerant to morphine by pellet implantation, exposure to 75% N 2 O/25% O 2 evoked a marked hypothermia similar to that observed in morphine-naive animals. In another experiment, the hypothermic effect of chloral hydrate was also sensitive to antagonism by pretreatment with naloxone but not naltrexone. These observations lead us to suspect that N 2 O-induced hypothermia in rats is possibly not mediated by opiate receptors. The thermotropic activity of N 2 O may result from some non-opioid action of N 2 O. Its selective antagonism by naloxone (but not naltrexone) may be due to a unique non-opioid analeptic action of naloxone.
