The basolateral amygdala-anterior cingulate pathway contributes to depression-like behaviors and comorbidity with chronic pain behaviors in male mice.

While depression and chronic pain are frequently comorbid, underlying neuronal circuits and their psychopathological relevance remain poorly defined. Here we show in mice that hyperactivity of the neuronal pathway linking […]

A comprehensive overview of juvenile idiopathic arthritis: From pathophysiology to management.

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a progressive autoimmune disease. It is among the most widespread chronic illnesses in children, with an annual incidence of 1.6 to 23 new instances per 100,000 […]

Role of the blood-spinal cord barrier: An adheren junction regulation mechanism that promotes chronic postsurgical pain.

Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) is a serious postoperative complication with high incidence, and its pathogenesis involves neuroimmune interactions and the breakdown of the blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB), the decreased level […]

Dual contribution of ASIC1a channels in the spinal processing of pain information by deep projection neurons revealed by computational modeling.

Dorsal horn of the spinal cord is an important crossroad of pain neuraxis, especially for the neuronal plasticity mechanisms that can lead to chronic pain states. Windup is a well-known […]

Effect of stimulation intensity of a differential target multiplexed SCS program in an animal model of neuropathic pain.

Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) has been proven to be an effective treatment for patients suffering from intractable chronic neuropathic pain. Recent advances in the field include the utilization of programs […]

Distinct serum immune profiles define the spectrum of acute and chronic pancreatitis from the multi-center PROCEED study.

Pancreatitis is a disease continuum, starting with acute pancreatitis (AP) and, in some cases, progressing to recurrent acute pancreatitis (RAP) and chronic pancreatitis (CP). Currently, there are no approved therapies […]

GSK-3β inhibition alleviates arthritis pain via reducing spinal mitochondrial reactive oxygen species level and inflammation.

Pain is the main symptom of osteoarthritis, which severely reduces the patients’ quality of life. Stimulated neuroinflammation and elevated mitochondrial oxidative stress are associated arthritis pain. In the present study, […]

The Antinociceptive Activity of (E)-3-(thiophen-2-yl)-N-(p-tolyl)acrylamide in Mice Is Reduced by (E)-3-(furan-2-yl)-N-methyl-N-(p-tolyl)acrylamide Through Opposing Modulatory Mechanisms at the α7 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor.

The primary objective of this study was to characterize the pharmacological and behavioral activity of 2 novel compounds, DM497 [(E)-3-(thiophen-2-yl)-N-(p-tolyl)acrylamide] and DM490 [(E)-3-(furan-2-yl)-N-methyl-N-(p-tolyl)acrylamide], structural derivatives of PAM-2, a positive allosteric […]

Structure-Based Discovery of a New Selectivity-Enabling Motif for the FK506-Binding Protein 51.

In recent years, the selective inhibition of FKBP51 has emerged as a possible treatment for chronic pain, obesity-induced diabetes, or depression. All currently known advanced FKBP51-selective inhibitors, including the widely […]

Characteristics, polarization and targeted therapy of mononuclear macrophages in rheumatoid arthritis.

Macrophages are the core of the pathophysiology of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). They participate in specific and non-specific immunological responses, have phagocytosis, chemotaxis and immune regulatory functions, and are involved in […]
