Repeated exposure to psychophysical stress often causes an increase in sensitivity and response to pain. This phenomenon is commonly called stress-induced hyperalgesia (SIH). Although psychophysical stress is a well-known risk […]
Learn More >The serotonergic 5-HT1A receptors are implicated in the central mechanisms of visceral pain, but their role in these processes is controversial. Considering existing evidences for organic inflammation-triggered neuroplastic changes in […]
Learn More >Although cigarette smoke (CS) and low back pain (LBP) are common worldwide, their correlations and the mechanisms of action remain unclear. We had shown that excessive activation of Mast Cells […]
Learn More >Close links exist between vestibular function and cognition. Dual-task (DT) tests may have ecological validity to assess the impact of daily life cognitive-motor demands in people with vestibular dysfunction (PwVD), […]
Learn More >Cannabis has been used recreationally and medically for centuries, yet research into understanding the mechanisms of its therapeutic effects has only recently garnered more attention. There is evidence to support […]
Learn More >Specialized pro-resolving mediators (SPMs) have recently emerged as promising therapeutic approaches for neuropathic pain (NP). We evaluated the effects of oral treatment with the SPM Maresin 1 (MaR1) on behavioral […]
Learn More >Mas-related G-protein-coupled receptors X1-X4 (MRGPRX1-X4) are 4 primate-specific receptors that are recently reported to be responsible for many biological processes, including itch sensation, pain transmission, and inflammatory reactions. MRGPRX1 is […]
Learn More >Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the typical representatives of chronic functional visceral pain that lacks effective treatment. Recently, attention has been given to the role of microglia in […]
Learn More >Temporomandibular joint (TMJ)-associated inflammation contributes to the pain reported by patients with temporomandibular disorders (TMD). It is common for patients diagnosed with TMD to report pain in the masticatory muscles […]
Learn More >The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) has been implicated in the modulation of pain-related signals. Given this involvement, manipulation of the DLPFC through transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) may influence internal […]
