متن کاملDemethylating drugs as novel analgesics for cancer pain.
PURPOSE In this study, we evaluated the analgesic potential of demethylating drugs on oral cancer pain. Although demethylating drugs could affect expression of many genes, we focused on the mu-opioid receptor (OPRM1) gene pathway, because of its role in pain processing. We determined the antinociceptive effect of OPRM1 re-expression in a mouse oral cancer model. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Using a mo...

Their efficacy in this regard is now well established through both clinical trials, as well as systematic and meta-analysis approaches. Although the mech...
