Epigenetic regulation of chemokine (CC-motif) ligand 2 in inflammatory diseases.

Appropriate responses to inflammation are conducive to pathogen elimination and tissue repair, while uncontrolled inflammatory reactions are likely to result in the damage of tissues. Chemokine (CC-motif) Ligand 2 (CCL2) […]

Genetic polymorphisms of and postherpetic pain susceptibility: Multicenter, randomized control, and haplotype analysis study.

Adenosine 5′-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a pivotal regulatory protein in energy metabolism. In a pilot study, we found that AMPK-associated energy metabolism imbalance in neurons contributes to the […]

Comparative transcriptome of dorsal root ganglia reveals distinct etiologies of paclitaxel- and oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy in rats.

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is one of the most common side effects of anticancer therapy. It is anticipated that chemotherapies with different mechanisms of action may affect somatosensory neurons differently. This […]
