Alterations in cortical excitability during pain: A combined TMS-EEG Study.

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has been used to examine the inhibitory and facilitatory circuits during experimental pain and in chronic pain populations. However, current applications of TMS to pain have […]

Promoting AMPK/SR-A1-mediated clearance of HMGB1 attenuates chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy.

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a serious side effect of chemotherapy with poorly understood mechanisms and few treatments. High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1)-induced neuroinflammation is the main cause of CIPN. […]

Naphthylisoquinoline alkaloids, a new structural template inhibitor of Nav1.7 sodium channel.

Voltage-gated sodium channel 1.7 (Nav1.7) remains one of the most promising drug targets for pain relief. In the current study, we conducted a high-throughput screening of natural products in our […]

Central medial thalamic nucleus dynamically participates in acute itch sensation and chronic itch-induced anxiety-like behavior in male mice.

Itch is an annoying sensation consisting of both sensory and emotional components. It is known to involve the parabrachial nucleus (PBN), but the following transmission nodes remain elusive. The present […]

Effects of risk factors on evoked pain patterns in rat models of experimental knee osteoarthritis.

Pain experiences in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) may be influenced differently by OA risk factors, reducing the translatability of pre-clinical research into the clinic. Our objective was to contrast […]

The Role of Opioid Receptors in Cancer.

Opioids are one of the most potent drugs for treating moderate to severe pain. Despite irrefutable clinical application in chronic pain management, the long-term use of opioids has been increasingly […]

Lyn-mediated glycolysis enhancement of microglia contributes to neuropathic pain through facilitating IRF5 nuclear translocation in spinal dorsal horn.

The pro-inflammatory phenotype of microglia usually induces neuroinflammatory reactions in neuropathic pain. Glycometabolism shift to glycolysis can promote the pro-inflammatory phenotype transition of microglia. The omics data analysis suggest a […]

The mTOR inhibitor rapamycin suppresses trigeminal neuropathic pain and p-MKK4/p-p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase-mediated microglial activation in the trigeminal nucleus caudalis of mice with infraorbital nerve injury.

Neuropathic pain caused by trigeminal nerve injury is a typical refractory orofacial chronic pain accompanied by the development of hyperalgesia and allodynia. We previously demonstrated that the mammalian target of […]

Epigenomic profiling of mouse nucleus accumbens at single-cell resolution.

The nucleus accumbens (NAc) is a key brain region involved in reward processing and is linked to multiple neuropsychiatric conditions such as substance use disorder, depression, and chronic pain. Recent […]
