Recent studies by us and others have shown that enhancer of zeste homolog-2 (EZH2), a histone methyltransferase, in glial cells regulates the genesis of neuropathic pain by modulating the production […]
Learn More >Chronic pain affects one in five people across human societies, with few therapeutic options available. Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) can provide long-lasting pain relief by inhibiting local release of neuropeptides and […]
Learn More >Opioids and other agonists of the μ-opioid receptor are effective at managing acute pain, but their chronic use can lead to tolerance that limits their efficacy. We previously reported that […]
Learn More >Gamma band activity localized to the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) in humans and animals is implicated in the higher order neural processing of painful and tactile stimuli. However, it is […]
Learn More >Bradykinin is a peptide implicated in inflammatory pain in both humans and rodents. In rodent sensory neurons, activation of B1 and B2 bradykinin receptors induces neuronal hyperexcitability. Recent evidence suggests […]
Learn More >Terpenes are small hydrocarbon compounds that impart aroma and taste to many plants, including . A number of studies have shown that terpenes can produce pain relief in various pain […]
Learn More >The purpose of this study was to measure the vestibular function and plasma fibrinogen level in the nitroglycerin (NTG)-induced chronic migraine rats, and explore the effect of defibrinogenation on migraine […]
Learn More >Endometriosis is an estrogen dominant, chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the growth of endometrial-like tissue outside of the uterus. The most common symptoms experienced by patients include manifestations of chronic […]
Learn More >Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels constitute a large group of membrane receptors associated with sensory pathways in vertebrates. One of the most studied is TRPV1, a polymodal receptor tuned for […]
Learn More >Neuropathy is a prevalent and debilitating complication of poorly managed diabetes, contributing towards poor quality of life, amputation risk, and increased mortality. The available therapies for diabetic neuropathic pain (DPN) […]
