Popis: Opioid and cannabinoid systems have considerable roles in the modulation of chronic pain as well as regulation reward circuit and addiction responses. This study investigated the effect of nitroglycerin (NTG)-induced migraine attack on the acquisition of morphine and cannabinoid-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) in male rats. Adult male rats (230-250 gr) were used. Experimental groups were included (n=10): control, opioid receptor agonist morphine (10 mg/kg), WIN55,212-2 (1 mg/kg) as a cannabinoid receptor agonist, NTG + morphine (10 mg/kg) and NTG + WIN55,212-2 (1 mg/kg). Nitroglycerin (10 mg/kg) was used to induce migraine attacks every other day for 9 days. After migraine induction, conditioning performance was assessed by CPP test. During conditioning days, morphine and WIN55,212-2 were injected subcutaneously and intraperitoneally, respectively. Anxiety and locomotor activity were evaluated using open field test (OFT). According to data, conditioning score for morphine-treated rats was significantly decreased following NTG-induced migraine (p
