Taselisib moderates neuropathic pain through PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in a rat model of chronic constriction injury.

Neuropathic pain is a chronic condition commonly caused by inflammation-induced disturbances or lesions of somatosensory functions in the nervous system. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects […]

Cannabidiol alleviates neuroinflammation and attenuates neuropathic pain via targeting FKBP5.

Microglia is a heterogeneous population that mediates neuroinflammation in the central nervous system (CNS) and plays a crucial role in developing neuropathic pain. FKBP5 facilitates the assembly of the IκB […]

Sophorolipid inhibits histamine-induced itch by decreasing PLC/IP3R signaling pathway activation and modulating TRPV1 activity.

Biosurfactants are attracting much interest due to their potential application as therapeutic agents in the medical and cosmetic field. Previous studies have demonstrated that biosurfactant such as sophorolipid (SL) exhibits […]

Loss of Pinch Proteins Causes Severe Degenerative Disc Disease-Like Lesions in Mice.

Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is one of the most common skeletal disorders affecting aged populations. DDD is the leading cause of low back/neck pain, resulting in disability and huge socioeconomic […]

FSLLRY-NH, a protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) antagonist, activates mas-related G protein-coupled receptor C11 (MrgprC11) to induce scratching behaviors in mice.

Protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2), a type of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), plays a significant role in pathophysiological conditions such as inflammation. A synthetic peptide SLIGRL-NH (SLIGRL) can activate PAR2, while […]

TLR4 activation by lysozyme induces pain without inflammation.

Mostly, pain has been studied in association with inflammation, until recent studies which indicate that during bacterial infections, pain mechanisms could be independent of the inflammation. Chronic pain can sustain […]

Pharmacological Modulation of the MIP-1 Family and Their Receptors Reduces Neuropathic Pain Symptoms and Influences Morphine Analgesia: Evidence from a Mouse Model.

Neuropathic pain pathophysiology is not fully understood, but it was recently shown that MIP-1 family members (CCL3, CCL4, and CCL9) have strong pronociceptive properties. Our goal was to examine how […]

Hypercontractile Cardiac Phenotype in Mice with Migraine-Associated Mutation in the Na,K-ATPase α-Isoform.

Two α-isoforms of the Na,K-ATPase (α and α) are expressed in the cardiovascular system, and it is unclear which isoform is the preferential regulator of contractility. Mice heterozygous for the […]

Catecholaminergic and Cholinergic Systems Mediate Beneficial Effect of Vortioxetine on Diabetes-Induced Neuropathic Pain.

The therapeutic potential of vortioxetine on mechanical hyperalgesia/allodynia was investigated in rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes, and its possible mechanism of action was elucidated in this study. The obtained findings demonstrated […]
