The glycine receptor alpha 3 subunit mRNA expression shows sex-dependent differences in the adult mouse brain.

The glycinergic system plays an important inhibitory role in the mouse central nervous system, where glycine controls the excitability of spinal itch- and pain-mediating neurons. Impairments of the glycine receptors […]

Collagen mimetic peptide repair of the corneal nerve bed in a mouse model of dry eye disease.

The intraepithelial sub-basal nerve plexus of the cornea is characterized by a central swirl of nerve processes that terminate between the apical cells of the epithelium. This plexus is a […]

Automated Patch Clamp Screening of Amiloride and 5-,-Hexamethyleneamiloride Analogs Identifies 6-Iodoamiloride as a Potent Acid-Sensing Ion Channel Inhibitor.

Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) are transmembrane sensors of extracellular acidosis and potential drug targets in several disease indications, including neuropathic pain and cancer metastasis. The K-sparing diuretic amiloride is a […]

The insulin receptor regulates the persistence of mechanical nociceptive sensitization in flies and mice.

Early phase diabetes is often accompanied by pain sensitization. In Drosophila, the insulin receptor (InR) regulates the persistence of injury-induced thermal nociceptive sensitization. Whether Drosophila InR also regulates the persistence […]

Reversal of Neuralgia Effect of Beta Carotene in Streptozotocin-Associated Diabetic Neuropathic Pain in Female Zebrafish via Matrix Metalloprotease-13 Inhibition.

Beta carotene is a natural anti-oxidant agent, and it inhibits the matrix metalloprotease (MMP) activity. Diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP) is produced by cellular oxidative stress. The role of the beta […]
