Abstrakt: Abstract  We studied the effects of pharmacological blockade (by injections of naloxone) of the system of opioid peptides on changes in emotional/behavioral reactions of rats in the open-field test. These changes were caused by the isolated action of low-intensity electromagnetic radiation (EMR) of extrahigh frequency (EHF) and its combination with experimentally induced hypokinetic stress. We conclude that one of the mechanisms of physiological effects of low-intensity EHF EMR is an increase in the functional activity of the system of regulatory opioid peptides; this results in adaptive modifications of the emotional/behavioral reactions under new conditions of the open-field test and provide an anti-stress effect under conditions of hypokinetic stress.
