Acanthoscurria gomesiana spider-derived Mygalin in the prelimbic prefrontal cortex modulates neuropathic pain and depression comorbid.

Depression has a high rate of comorbidity with neuropathic pain. This study aims to investigate the effect of Mygalin, an acylpolyamine synthesized from a natural molecule in the hemolymph of […]

Preclinical evidence for the use of the atypical antipsychotic, brexpiprazole, for opioid use disorder.

Opioid addiction is characterized by adaptations in the mesolimbic dopamine system that occur during chronic opioid use. Alterations in dopaminergic transmission contribute to pathological drug-seeking behavior and other symptoms associated […]

Peripherally injected canabidiol reduces neuropathic pain in mice: Role of the 5-HT and TRPV1 receptors.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is the most abundant non-psychoactive component found in plants of the genus Cannabis. Its analgesic effect for the treatment of neuropathy has been widely studied. However, little is […]

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 […]

Non-opioid analgesics for the prevention of chronic postsurgical pain: a systematic review and network meta-analysis.

Chronic postsurgical pain is common after surgery. Identification of non-opioid analgesics with potential for preventing chronic postsurgical pain is important, although trials are often underpowered. Network meta-analysis offers an opportunity […]
