Hyperalgesic activity of kisspeptin in mice
BACKGROUND Kisspeptin is a neuropeptide known for its role in the hypothalamic regulation of the reproductive axis. Following the recent description of kisspeptin and its 7-TM receptor, GPR54, in the dorsal root ganglia and dorsal horns of the spinal cord, we examined the role of kisspeptin in the regulation of pain sensitivity in mice. RESULTS Immunofluorescent staining in the mouse skin sho...
متن کاملPharmacologic Characteristics of a Medullary Hyperalgesic Center1
The effects of ethylketazocine, U-50,488, morphine and (-)nicotine administered both i.p. and into the mid-fourth ventricle of intact rats were investigated using a conventional high intensity tail-flick reflex and one evoked with a lower intensity thermal stimulus. The sensitivity of the low intensity thermally evoked tail avoidance reflex was several times that of a high intensity tailflick r...
متن کاملPresynaptic Mechanism for Anti-Analgesic and Anti- Hyperalgesic Actions of -Opioid Receptors
Glutamate neurotransmission plays an important role in the processing of pain and in chronic opioid-induced neural and behavioral plasticity, such as opioid withdrawal and opioid dependence. -Opioid receptors also have been implicated in acute opioid modulation of pain and chronic opioid-induced plasticity, both of which are primarily mediated by -opioid receptors. Using whole-cell patch clamp ...
متن کاملAnti-cytokine and anti-hyperalgesic effects of aliskiren in experimental models of inflammation
INTRODUCTION The involvement of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in pathogenesis and progression of inflammatory responses has received much attention recently. Angiotensin II (Ang II), the main peptide of the RAS, is considered as a pro-inflammatory mediator that participates in the inflammatory response in several pathological processes.1-3 It modulates the production of adhesion molecules,...
متن کاملMinocycline potentiates the anti-hyperalgesic effect of ceftriaxone in CCI-induced neuropathic pain in rats
Glutamate neurotoxicity and pro-inflammatory cytokines have an important role in the central sensitization of neuropathic pain. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate anti-hyperalgesic effect of repeated administration of ceftriaxone, which selectively activates and increases the expression of glutamate transporter, as well as minocycline, a selective inhibitor of microglia activation...
