Immunofluorescent spectral analysis reveals the intrathecal cannabinoid agonist, AM1241, produces spinal anti-inflammatory cytokine responses in neuropathic rats exhibiting relief from allodynia
During pathological pain, the actions of the endocannabinoid system, including the cannabinoid 2 receptor (CB(2)R), leads to effective anti-allodynia and modifies a variety of spinal microglial and astrocyte responses. Here, following spinal administration of the CB(2)R compound, AM1241, we examined immunoreactive alterations in markers for activated p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, interl...
متن کاملIntrathecal delivery of PDGF produces tactile allodynia through its receptors in spinal microglia
Neuropathic pain is a debilitating pain condition that occurs after nerve damage. Such pain is considered to be a reflection of the aberrant excitability of dorsal horn neurons. Emerging lines of evidence indicate that spinal microglia play a crucial role in neuronal excitability and the pathogenesis of neuropathic pain, but the mechanisms underlying neuron-microglia communications in the dorsa...
متن کاملThe effect of WIN 55,212-2, a cannabinoid agonist, on tactile allodynia in diabetic rats.
The antinociceptive action of cannabinoids in acute and inflammatory pain states have been well-documented. There is also accumulating evidence suggesting that cannabinoids are effective analgesics in chronic pain conditions. WIN 55,212-2, a mixed CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptor agonist, has been shown to be effective against hyperalgesia and allodynia in painful peripheral mononeuropathy. Rec...
متن کاملThe effect of intrathecal curcumin on mechanical allodynia in rats after L5 spinal nerve ligation
provided the original work is properly cited. CC Curcumin is found in the yellow spice turmeric made from the roots (rhizomes) of Curcuma longa. Curcumin has been known to have various antinociceptive activities in some animal models, including an antinociceptive activity on neuropathic pain. The anti-nociceptive effect of curcumin is exerted through its action on dorsal root ganglia, by inhibi...
متن کاملSpinal and peripheral analgesic effects of the CB2 cannabinoid receptor agonist AM1241 in two models of bone cancer-induced pain.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The activation of CB(2) receptors induces analgesia in experimental models of chronic pain. The present experiments were designed to study whether the activation of peripheral or spinal CB(2) receptors relieves thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia in two models of bone cancer pain. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH NCTC 2472 osteosarcoma or B16-F10 melanoma cells were intr...
