Capsaicin, Nociception and Pain.
Capsaicin, the pungent ingredient of the hot chili pepper, is known to act on the transient receptor potential cation channel vanilloid subfamily member 1 (TRPV1). TRPV1 is involved in somatic and visceral peripheral inflammation, in the modulation of nociceptive inputs to spinal cord and brain stem centers, as well as the integration of diverse painful stimuli. In this review, we first describ...
متن کاملHAZARD I: Software for Fire Hazard Assessment
NIST Handbook 146, HAZARD I—Fire Hazard Assessment Method [1], represents the culmination of a long-term program aimed at placing the prediction of fire outcomes on an objective and scientific basis. In the 1970s, NIST supported Harvard University to develop numerical models that could predict the temperature in a room containing a fire. These early models were difficult to use and interpret; r...
متن کاملCapsaicin and pain mechanisms.
Capsaicin, the active ingredient in hot chilli peppers, has selective actions on unmyelinated C-fibres and thinly myelinated A primary sensory neurones [37, 100] (Table 1). Most capsaicin-sensitive fibres are polymodal nociceptors which respond to a range of sensory stimuli including noxious pressure, heat and chemical irritants [51, 100], and are the most abundant class of nociceptive fibre. N...
متن کاملCapsaicin for Rhinitis
Rhinitis is a multifactorial disease characterized by symptoms of sneezing, rhinorrhea, postnasal drip, and nasal congestion. Non-allergic rhinitis is characterized by rhinitis symptoms without systemic sensitization of infectious etiology. Based on endotypes, we can categorize non-allergic rhinitis into an inflammatory endotype with usually eosinophilic inflammation encompassing at least NARES...
متن کاملCapsaicin effects on blinking.
Blinking is a normal human phenomenon involving trigeminal and facial pathways. To gain understanding on the neurobiology of blinking, five normal subjects were investigated before and after application of transdermal capsaicin at the forehead for two weeks. No effects of topical capsaicin were detected in eye blink rates. However, when capsaicin was applied to a female subject with blepharospa...
