Protease-Activated Receptor 2 (PAR2) expressed in sensory neurons contributes to signs of pain and neuropathy in paclitaxel treated mice.

Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN) is a common, dose-limiting side effect of cancer therapy. Protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) is implicated in a variety of pathologies, including CIPN. In this study, we […]

Fibroblast-derived PI16 sustains inflammatory pain via regulation of CD206 myeloid cells.

Originally identified in fibroblasts, Protease Inhibitor (PI)16 was recently shown to be crucial for the development of neuropathic pain via effects on blood-nerve barrier permeability and leukocyte infiltration, though its […]

Repeat mild traumatic brain injuries (RmTBI) modify nociception and disrupt orexinergic connectivity within the descending pain pathway.

Repeat mild traumatic brain injuries (RmTBI) result in substantial burden to the public health system given their association with chronic post-injury pathologies, such as chronic pain and post-traumatic headache. Although […]

Inhibition of tumor-derived CCL2 expression attenuates tactile allodynia in NCTC 2472 fibrosarcoma-inoculated mice.

Neuropathic pain associated with cancers is caused by tumor growth compressing and damaging nerves, which would also be enhanced by inflammatory factors through sensitizing nociceptor neurons. One troublesome hallmark symptom […]

Sub-Anaesthetic Dose of Propofol Attenuates Mechanical Allodynia in Chronic Post-Ischaemic Pain via Regulation of PTEN/PI3K/IL-6 Signalling.

Propofol is an intravenous anaesthetic drug that has been shown to reduce inflammatory pain. Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) type I is a pain condition characterized by autonomic, motor and […]

Loosely synchronized activation of anterior cingulate cortical neurons for scratching response during histamine-induced itch.

Itch is a distinctive sensation that causes a specific affection and scratching reaction. The anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) has been linked to itch sensation in numerous studies; however, its precise […]
