Bach1 inhibitor HPP-D mediates γ-globin gene activation in sickle erythroid progenitors.

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is the most common β-hemoglobinopathy caused by various mutations in the adult β-globin gene resulting in sickle hemoglobin production, chronic hemolytic anemia, pain, and progressive organ […]

Long non-coding RNA Snhg16 Lessens Ozone Curative Effect on Chronic Constriction Injury mice via microRNA-719/SCN1A axis.

We investigated the function and molecular mechanism of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) small nucleolar RNA host gene 16 (Snhg16) in modifying ozone treatment for neuropathic pain (NP) in a mouse […]

Genetic Mechanisms of Migraine: Insights from Monogenic Migraine Mutations.

Migraine is a disabling neurological disorder burdening patients globally. Through the increasing development of preclinical and clinical experimental migraine models, advancing appreciation of the extended clinical phenotype, and functional neuroimaging […]

DNA N6-methyladenine methylase N6AMT1 controls neuropathic pain through epigenetically modifying Kcnj16 in dorsal horn neurons.

Nerve injury-induced aberrant changes in gene expression in spinal dorsal horn neurons are critical for the genesis of neuropathic pain. N6-methyladenine (m6A) modification of DNA represents an additional layer of […]

Sickle Cell Disease: From Genetics to Curative Approaches.

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a monogenic blood disease caused by a point mutation in the gene coding for β-globin. The abnormal hemoglobin [sickle hemoglobin (HbS)] polymerizes under low-oxygen conditions […]

Neat1 lncRNA organizes the inflammatory gene expressions in the dorsal root ganglion in neuropathic pain caused by nerve injury.

Primary sensory neurons regulate inflammatory processes in innervated regions through neuro-immune communication. However, how their immune-modulating functions are regulated in concert remains largely unknown. Here, we show that Neat1 long […]

Transcription factor EBF1 mitigates neuropathic pain by rescuing Kv1.2 expression in primary sensory neurons.

Nerve injury-induced alternations of gene expression in primary sensory neurons of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) are molecular basis of neuropathic pain genesis. Transcription factors regulate gene expression. In this study, […]

Genetic correlations between migraine and carpal tunnel syndrome.

Surgical deactivation of extracranial nerve trigger sites is now well-established as an effective treatment for migraine headache. Parallels have been drawn to median nerve decompression for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), […]

Glucocorticoids regulate lipid mediator networks by reciprocal modulation of 15-lipoxygenase isoforms affecting inflammation resolution.

Glucocorticoids (GC) are potent anti-inflammatory agents, broadly used to treat acute and chronic inflammatory diseases, e.g., critically ill COVID-19 patients or patients with chronic inflammatory bowel diseases. GC not only […]

Screening of miR-15a-5p as a potential biomarker for intervertebral disc degeneration through RNA-sequencing.

Low back pain (LBP) is a prevalent clinical condition that imposes substantial economic burdens on society. Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is recognized as a major contributing factor to LBP. Recent […]
