Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Alleviates Paclitaxel-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy Involving Suppressing TLR4-MyD88-NF-κB Signaling Pathway.

Paclitaxel (PAC) results in long-term chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). The coexpression of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) in the nervous system plays an essential […]

Blocking prokineticin receptors attenuates synovitis and joint destruction in collagen-induced arthritis.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease mediated by an interdependent network of proinflammatory molecules such as chemokines. Prokineticin 2 (PK2) is a chemokine-like peptide that modulates nociceptive threshold […]

Spinal Interferon Regulatory Factor 8 and Brain-derived Neurotrophic Factor in the Prefrontal Cortex are Involved in Pain-induced Depression Relief via Ultrasound-guided Pulsed Radiofrequency in a Rat Spared Nerve Injury Model.

Pain-depression comorbidity has become a great burden to individuals and society. Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying comorbid diseases have still not been fully revealed. Ultrasound-guided pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) on peripheral nerves, […]

Kinin B1 and B2 Receptors Contribute to Cisplatin-Induced Painful Peripheral Neuropathy in Male Mice.

Cisplatin is the preferential chemotherapeutic drug for highly prevalent solid tumours. However, its clinical efficacy is frequently limited due to neurotoxic effects such as peripheral neuropathy. Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is […]

Changes in Plasma Metabolic Signature upon Acute and Chronic Morphine Administration in Morphine-Tolerant Mice.

Morphine administration causes system-level metabolic changes. Here, we show that morphine-tolerant mice exhibited distinct plasma metabolic signatures upon acute and chronic administration. We utilized a mouse model of morphine tolerance […]

Molecular Profiling of Inflammatory Processes in a Mouse Model of IC/BPS: From the Complete Transcriptome to Major Sex-Related Histological Features of the Urinary Bladder.

Animal models are invaluable in the research of the pathophysiology of interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), a chronic aseptic urinary bladder disease of unknown etiology that primarily affects women. Here, […]

IL-1 Mediates Chronic Stress-Induced Hyperalgesia Accompanied by Microglia and Astroglia Morphological Changes in Pain-Related Brain Regions in Mice.

Chronic stress causes several pain conditions including fibromyalgia. Its pathophysiological mechanisms are unknown, and the therapy is unresolved. Since the involvement of interleukin-1 (IL-1) has been described in stress and […]

Are serum thyroid hormone, parathormone, calcium, and vitamin D levels associated with lumbar spine degeneration? A cross-sectional observational clinical study.

Low back pain (LBP) impairs the quality of life and rises healthcare costs. The association of spine degeneration and LBP with metabolic disorders have been reported, previously. However, metabolic processes […]

Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells attenuate complete Freund’s adjuvant-induced inflammatory pain by inhibiting the expression of P2X3.

Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) show a good property for pain treatment by modulating inflammatory response. However, the underlying therapeutic effect and related mechanism of BMSCs on inflammatory pain […]

Shape-memory collagen scaffold combined with hyaluronic acid for repairing intervertebral disc.

Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is a common cause of chronic low back pain (LBP) and a socioeconomic burden worldwide. Conservative therapies and surgical treatments provide only symptomatic pain relief without […]
