Endometriosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects ∼ 10 % of women. A significant fraction of patients experience limited or no efficacy with current therapies. Tissue adjacent to endometriosis lesions often exhibits […]
We explored in mice, the analgesic, tolerance, dependency, and rewarding effects of systemic acetaminophen (APAP).
Anti-contactin associated protein receptor 2 (CASPR2) encephalitis is a severe autoimmune encephalitis with a variable clinical phenotype including behavioral abnormalities, cognitive decline, epileptic seizures, peripheral nerve hyperexcitability and neuropathic pain. […]
Neuropathic pain is a significant and persistent issue for individuals with spinal cord injuries (SCI), severely impacting their quality of life. While changes at the peripheral and spinal levels are […]
Electrical excitability-the ability to fire and propagate action potentials-is a signature feature of neurons. How neurons become excitable during development and whether excitability is an intrinsic property of neurons remain […]
Artemisia annua L., known for antimalarial activity, has demonstrated evidence of anti-inflammatory potential. Previously our research group reported the anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive effect of a sesquiterpene lactone-enriched fraction (Lac-FR) obtained […]
The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is implicated in pain modulation, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target for pain relief. However, studies on transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) over the DLPFC […]
Immune cells and interleukins play a crucial role in female-specific pain signaling. Interleukin 16 (IL-16) is a cytokine primarily associated with CD4+ T cell function. While previous studies have demonstrated […]
Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a urinary disorder that affects youthful to middle-aged men most frequently. It has been revealed that Th17/Treg imbalance is a crucial factor in […]
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is one of the major regulators of low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR). Information on role and regulation of PCSK9 in lung is very limited. Our […]
