Leukotrienes in nociceptive pathway and neuropathic/inflammatory pain.
The purpose of this review is to summarize the recent studies examining the expression of leukotrienes (LTs) and their receptors in nociceptive pathways, and their crucial roles in pathological pain conditions. LTs belong to a large family of lipid mediators, termed eicosanoids, which are derived from arachidonic acids and released from the cell membrane by phospholipases. LTs are known to be i...
متن کاملMigraine, neuropathic pain and nociceptive pain: towards a unifying concept.
Migraine, neuropathic pain and nociceptive pain are the three commonest pain syndromes affecting human. In the present article, we first present the salient features of the pathophysiology of the three conditions particularly highlighting the core features that are similar in the three conditions. We argue on the validity of the prevailing concept that maintenance of structural integrity of the...
متن کاملInhibition of inflammatory pain by activating B-type natriuretic peptide signal pathway in nociceptive sensory neurons.
B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) has been known to be secreted from cardiac myocytes and activate its receptor, natriuretic peptide receptor-A (NPR-A), to reduce ventricular fibrosis. However, the function of BNP/NPR-A pathway in the somatic sensory system has been unknown. In the present study, we report a novel function of BNP in pain modulation. Using microarray and immunoblot analyses, we f...
متن کاملTopiramate in nociceptive pain - experimental analgesia study
Introduction The complex pharmacodynamic mechanism of topiramate is currently approved for only two major diseases: epilepsy, mono or combined therapy, and preventing episodes of migraine. However, there are many other studies that emphasize other potential clinical effects deriving from its complex action and leading to its use in acute nociceptive pain and neuropathic pain management. Topiram...
