Epigenomic profiling of mouse nucleus accumbens at single-cell resolution.

The nucleus accumbens (NAc) is a key brain region involved in reward processing and is linked to multiple neuropsychiatric conditions such as substance use disorder, depression, and chronic pain. Recent […]

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of acyl sulfonamide derivatives with spiro cycles as Na1.7 inhibitors for antinociception.

Chronic pain, as an unmet medical need, severely impacts the quality of life. The voltage-gated sodium channel Na1.7 preferentially expressed in sensory neurons of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) serves a […]

The effects of aerobic exercise on neuroimmune responses in animals with traumatic peripheral nerve injury: a systematic review with meta-analyses.

Increasing pre-clinical evidence suggests that aerobic exercise positively modulates neuroimmune responses following traumatic nerve injury. However, meta-analyses on neuroimmune outcomes are currently still lacking. This study aimed to synthesize the […]

Characterization of the biochemical and behavioral effects of cannabidiol: implications for migraine.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is the main pharmacologically active phytocannabinoid. CBD exerts an analgesic effect in several pain models, does not have side effects and has low toxicity. The data about CBD […]

Central medial thalamic nucleus dynamically participates in acute itch sensation and chronic itch-induced anxiety-like behavior in male mice.

Itch is an annoying sensation consisting of both sensory and emotional components. It is known to involve the parabrachial nucleus (PBN), but the following transmission nodes remain elusive. The present […]

Effects of risk factors on evoked pain patterns in rat models of experimental knee osteoarthritis.

Pain experiences in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) may be influenced differently by OA risk factors, reducing the translatability of pre-clinical research into the clinic. Our objective was to contrast […]

Lyn-mediated glycolysis enhancement of microglia contributes to neuropathic pain through facilitating IRF5 nuclear translocation in spinal dorsal horn.

The pro-inflammatory phenotype of microglia usually induces neuroinflammatory reactions in neuropathic pain. Glycometabolism shift to glycolysis can promote the pro-inflammatory phenotype transition of microglia. The omics data analysis suggest a […]

Vitamin D reduces pain and cartilage destruction in knee osteoarthritis animals through inhibiting the matrix metalloprotease (MMPs) expression.

In this study, we investigated the therapeutic potential of vitamin D (VITD) in OA Wistar rats induced by anterior cruciate ligament transection combined with medial meniscectomy (ACLT + MMx). In ACLT + MMx-induced OA […]

Functional investigation and two-sample Mendelian randomization study of neuropathic pain hub genes obtained by WGCNA analysis.

Neuropathic pain as a complex chronic disease that occurs after neurological injury, however the underlying mechanisms are not clarified in detail, hence therapeutic options are limited. The purpose of this […]

In Vitro Study of the Anti-inflammatory and Antifibrotic Activity of Tannic Acid-Coated Curcumin-Loaded Nanoparticles in Human Tenocytes.

Tendinitis is a tendon disorder related to inflammation and pain, due to an injury or overuse of the tissue, which is hypocellular and hypovascular, leading to limited repair which occurs […]
