Anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive effects, and safety toxicological profile of a new paracetamol analog, LQFM291.

In the scope of a research program with the goal of developing treatments for inflammatory diseases, the pharmacological evaluation of LQFM291, designed by molecular hybridization from butylated hydroxytoluene and paracetamol, […]

HSP27 Modulates Neuropathic Pain by Inhibiting P2X3 Degradation.

The role of heat shock protein 27 (HSP27), a chaperone, in neuropathic pain after nerve injury has not been systematically surveyed despite its neuroprotective and regeneration-promoting effects. In this study, […]

Mitochondria-targeting nanozyme alleviating temporomandibular joint pain by inhibiting the TNFα/NF-κB/NEAT1 pathway.

Inflammatory cytokines that are secreted into the spinal trigeminal nucleus caudalis (Sp5C) may augment inflammation and cause pain associated with temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD). In a two-step process, we attached […]

Preliminary exploration of a multidimensional sleep health composite in adolescent females with frequent migraine.

This observational study aimed to: (i) describe and explore preliminary psychometric properties of a multidimensional sleep health composite score in adolescent females with frequent migraine; and (ii) examine associations between […]

Resting-state electroencephalography microstate dynamics altered in patients with migraine with and without aura-A pilot study.

To evaluate electroencephalography (EEG) microstate differences between patients with migraine with aura (MWA), patients with migraine without aura (MWoA), and healthy controls (HC).

Potentiation of PIEZO2 mechanically-activated currents in sensory neurons mediates vincristine-induced mechanical hypersensitivity.

Vincristine, a widely used chemotherapeutic agent for treating different cancer, often induces severe peripheral neuropathic pain. A common symptom of vincristine-induced peripheral neuropathic pain is mechanical allodynia and hyperalgesia. However, […]

Inactivation influences the extent of inhibition of voltage-gated Ca channels by Gem-implications for channelopathies.

Voltage-gated Ca channels (VGCC) directly control muscle contraction and neurotransmitter release, and slower processes such as cell differentiation, migration, and death. They are potently inhibited by RGK GTP-ases (Rem, Rem2, […]

Neurocognitive effect of biased µ-opioid receptor agonist oliceridine, a utility function analysis and comparison with morphine.

Oliceridine (Olinvyk®) is a μ-opioid receptor agonist that in contrast to conventional opioids preferentially engages the G-protein-coupled signaling pathway. We determined the utility function of oliceridine versus morphine based on […]

Impaired lactate release in dCA1 astrocytes contributed to nociceptive sensitization and comorbid memory deficits in rodents.

Memory deficits are a common comorbid disorder in patients suffering from neuropathic pain. The mechanisms underlying the comorbidities remain elusive. We hypothesized that impaired lactate release from dysfunctional astrocytes in […]

Interaction between local blood flow and tolerance to prolonged pain in the elderly.

We aimed to explore the link between local vasodilation and pain perception in elderly subjects, testing the hypothesis that altered local cutaneous blood flow participates in the decrease in pain […]
