The Interactions of Magnesium Sulfate and Cromoglycate in a Rat Model of Orofacial Pain; The Role of Magnesium on Mast Cell Degranulation in Neuroinflammation.

Mast cell degranulation impacts the development of pain and inflammation during tissue injury. We investigated the antinociceptive effect of a combination of cromoglycate and magnesium in the orofacial model of […]

Spinal Cord Stimulation Increases Chemoefficacy and Prevents Paclitaxel-Induced Pain via CX3CL1.

Despite increasing utilization of spinal cord stimulation (SCS), its effects on chemoefficacy, cancer progression, and chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) pain remain unclear. Up to 30% of adults who are cancer […]

No evidence for cognitive impairment in an experimental rat model of knee osteoarthritis and associated chronic pain.

Although chronic pain states have been associated with impaired cognitive functions, including memory and cognitive flexibility, the cognitive effects of osteoarthritis (OA) pain remain to be clarified. The aim of […]

Small extracellular vesicles from spared nerve injury model and sham control mice differentially regulate gene expression in primary microglia.

Nerve injury outcomes might be predicted by examining small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) in circulation, as their biomolecular cargo facilitates cellular communication and can alter transcriptional state and behavior of recipient […]

Dexmedetomidine alleviates osteoarthritis inflammation and pain through the CB pathway in rats.

As a common joint disease, osteoarthritis (OA) is often associated with chronic pain. Synovial inflammation is correlated with OA progression and pain. Synovial inflammation can produce a series of destructive […]

Involvement of ASIC3 and substance P in therapeutic ultrasound-mediated analgesia in mouse models of fibromyalgia.

Therapeutic ultrasound (tUS) is widely used in chronic muscle pain control. However, its analgesic molecular mechanism is still not known. Our objective is to reveal the mechanism of the tUS-induced […]

Studies on diketopiperazine and dipeptide analogs as opioid receptor ligands.

Using the structure of gliotoxin as a starting point, we have prepared two different chemotypes with selective affinity to the kappa opioid receptor (KOR). Using medicinal chemistry approaches and structure-activity […]

GABAergic neurons in the ventral lateral geniculate nucleus and intergeniculate leaflet are involved in itch processing in mice.

Itch and pain are two closely related sensations that receiving similar encodings at multiple levels. Accumulated evidences suggest that activation of the ventral lateral geniculate nucleus and intergeniculate leaflet (vLGN/IGL)-to-lateral […]

Chronic alcohol induced mechanical allodynia by promoting neuroinflammation: a mouse model of alcohol-evoked neuropathic pain.

Unrelieved chronic pain is considered a key factor contributing to the maintenance of alcohol use disorder (AUD). The mechanisms responsible for chronic pain associated with chronic alcohol consumption are still […]

Euthanasia and Pain in Canine Patients with Terminal and Chronic-Degenerative Diseases: Ethical and Legal Aspects.

Euthanasia is commonly performed in veterinary medicine to humanely induce the death of an animal when its quality of life is affected by pain or chronic degenerative diseases. The choice […]
