Effects of cysteamine (2-mercaptoethylamine) on vocalization responses, a parameter of nociceptive response, was studied in conscious guinea pigs. Intra-arterial injection of bradykinin (3 micrograms), acetylcholine (300 micrograms), capsaicin (3 micrograms) and vanillyl n-nonoylamide (3 micrograms, VNA) induced severe vocalization responses.
