The role of sigma(1) receptors in non-acute pain has not been explored. In this study we show that both phases of formalin-induced pain were reduced by approximately 55% in sigma(1) receptor knockout mice in comparison to wild-type animals. These results suggest that the tonic pain induced by formalin is altered in mice lacking receptors, and highlight the potential usefulness of further studies of the role of sigma(1) receptors in models of non-acute pain.
