Previous studies with the vanilloid spice principle capsaicin have demonstrated a biphasic VO 2 response, with vasoconstriction, in the perfused rat hindlimb that has led to suggestions of vanilloid receptor subtypes (VN 1/VN 2) in this preparation (1 ...

Capsaicin suppresses liver fat accumulation in high-fat diet-induced NAFLD mice
Dietary capsaicin exhibits anti-steatosis activity in obese mice. High-fat diet (HFD)-induced mice is a highly studied approach to develop non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Abstract Opioids are prescribed widely for chronic pain despite well‐recognised risks and variable long‐term benefit, reflecting the lack of effective alternatives for many patients. Combination therapies offer a promising strategy to enhance efficacy whilst reducing side effects.

Capsaicin Entrapment in Metal-Organic Framework Material Derived from γ-Cyclodextrin
Capsaicin, a pungent molecule from red chilli is known for its therapeutic benefits. However, poor aqueous solubility coupled with inherent pungency has limited its applications.

Membrane Interactivity of Capsaicin Antagonized by Capsazepine
Although the pharmacological activity of capsaicin has been explained by its specific binding to transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1, the amphiphilic structure of capsaicin may enable it to act on lipid bilayers.

Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) was the first noxious heat‐sensitive channel discovered. In rodents, its role is robust in the heat response of the cell body of polymodal nociceptors, but surprisingly small in that of the peripheral terminals in the skin.

Chili hotness is very much dependent on the concentration of capsaicin present in the chili fruit. A new biosensor based on a horseradish peroxidase enzyme-capsaicin reaction mediated by ferrocene has been successfully developed for the amperometric ...
