The forgotten key players in rheumatoid arthritis: IL-8 and IL-17 – Unmet needs and therapeutic perspectives.

Despite the relevant advances in our understanding of the pathogenetic mechanisms regulating inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and the development of effective therapeutics, to date, there is still a proportion […]

A Consensus Approach for Targeted Muscle Reinnervation in Amputees.

Amputations have been performed with few modifications since the dawn of surgery. Blood vessels are ligated, bones are shortened, and nerves are cut. In a percentage of people, this can […]

Bradykinin receptor expression and bradykinin-mediated sensitization of human sensory neurons.

Bradykinin is a peptide implicated in inflammatory pain in both humans and rodents. In rodent sensory neurons, activation of B1 and B2 bradykinin receptors induces neuronal hyperexcitability. Recent evidence suggests […]

EEG assessment of brain dysfunction for patients with chronic primary pain and depression under auditory oddball task.

In 2019, the International Classification of Diseases 11th Revision International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) put forward a new concept of “chronic primary pain” (CPP), a kind of chronic pain characterized […]

Effect of switching to erenumab in non-responders to a CGRP ligand antibody treatment in migraine: A real-world cohort study.

Therapeutic options for migraine prevention in non-responders to monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP) and its receptor are often limited. Real-world data have shown that non-responders to the […]

Pattern-recognition receptors in endometriosis: A narrative review.

Endometriosis is closely associated with ectopic focal inflammation and immunosuppressive microenvironment. Multiple types of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) are present in the innate immune system, which are able to detect […]

Migraine: from pathophysiology to treatment.

Migraine is an extremely disabling, common neurological disorder characterized by a complex neurobiology, involving a series of central and peripheral nervous system areas and networks. A growing increase in the […]

High Intensity-Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation Does Not Inhibit Temporal Summation of the Nociceptive Flexion Reflex.

Pain facilitation contributes to chronic pain conditions. Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is used to alleviate pain. The effects of conventional TENS on chronic pain have been limited, and its […]

Pain-Related Anxiety in Spanish-Speaking Mexican Americans who Report Chronic Pain: Psychometric Evaluation of a New Spanish Adaptation of the 20-Item Pain Anxiety Symptom Scale (PASS-20).

The 20-item Pain Anxiety Symptom Scale (PASS-20) was adapted for Spanish-speaking Mexican Americans who report chronic pain (SSMACP). The instrument measures pain-related anxiety with fear, physiological, avoidance/escape, and cognitive anxiety […]

Classical and Non-Classical Psychedelic Drugs Induce Common Network Changes in Human Cortex.

The neurobiology of the psychedelic experience is not fully understood. Identifying common brain network changes induced by both classical (i.e., acting at the 5-HT receptor) and non-classical psychedelics would provide […]
