Nutrition in the prevention and treatment of endometriosis: A review.

Endometriosis is characterized by the presence of endometrial tissues outside the uterine lining, typically on the external surface of the uterus, the ovaries, fallopian tubes, abdominal wall, or intestines. The […]

Mechanical and Heat Hyperalgesia upon Withdrawal from Chronic Intermittent Ethanol Vapor depends on Sex, Exposure Duration, and Blood Alcohol Concentration in Mice.

Approximately half of patients with alcohol use disorder report pain and this can be severe during withdrawal. Many questions remain regarding the importance of biological sex, alcohol exposure paradigm, and […]

Relationship between physical activity and central sensitization in chronic low back pain: Insights from machine learning.

Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a leading cause of disability. The management guidelines for the management of CLBP often recommend optimizing physical activity (PA). Among a subsample of patients […]

Endometriosis leads to central nervous system-wide glial activation in a mouse model of endometriosis.

Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) is a common symptom of endometriosis. Women with endometriosis are also at a high risk of suffering from anxiety, depression, and other psychological disorders. Recent studies […]

Loss of astrocytic A1 adenosine receptor is involved in a chemotherapeutic agent-induced rodent model of neuropathic pain.

Oxaliplatin is a commonly used platinum chemotherapy drug while peripheral neurotoxicity is a widely observed adverse reaction lacking a satisfactory therapeutic strategy. Different adenosine receptors underlying the common neuropathic phenotype […]

Diisocyanates influence models of atopic dermatitis through direct activation of TRPA1.

We recently used EPA databases to identify that isocyanates, most notably toluene diisocyanate (TDI), were the pollutant class with the strongest spatiotemporal and epidemiologic association with atopic dermatitis (AD). Our […]

Gray matter volume and pain tolerance in a general population: the Tromsø study.

As pain is processed by an extensive network of brain regions, the structural status of the brain may affect pain perception. We aimed to study the association between gray matter […]

Microglia-Neuron Interactions Promote Chronic Itch via the NLRP3-IL-1β-GRPR Axis.

Spinal astrocytes contribute to chronic itch via sensitization of itch-specific neurons expressing gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR). However, whether microglia-neuron interactions contribute to itch remains unclear. In this study, we aimed […]

Enhanced Contraction of Arterial Smooth Muscle Cell in Skin Artery Is Sensitive to Hyperpolarization Mediated by BK Channel in Chronic Constriction Injury Model Rat.

Previous our study found that improvement of skin blood flow associated with neuropathic pain using vasodilators is useful for alleviation of neuropathic pain. In this study, we aimed to elucidate […]

Phosphorylated upstream frameshift 1-dependent nonsense-mediated μ opioid receptor mRNA decay in the spinal cord contributes to the development of neuropathic allodynia-like behavior in rats.

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay increases targeted mRNA degradation and has been implicated in the regulation of gene expression in neurons. We hypothesized that nonsense-mediated μ opioid receptor mRNA decay in the […]
