Naloxone
From The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia
"It has been shown in "Thrills in Response to Music and Other Stimuli" (1980) that some experiencing musical frisson report reduced excitement when under administration of naloxone (an opioid receptor antagonist), suggesting musical frisson gives rise to endogenous opioid peptides similar to other pleasurable experiences." --Sholem Stein |
