Clinical significance of exercise‐induced hypoalgesia in individuals with temporomandibular disorders and neck pain: A clinical trial protocol

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Evidence reports positive effects of neck motor control and aerobic exercises (AEs) to improve pain in individuals with temporomandibular disorders (TMD) and neck pain. A single bout of exercise typically leads to an increase in pain thresholds up to 30 min post‐exercise, known as exercise‐induced hypoalgesia (EIH).

Endorphins, Exercise, and Addictions: A Review of Exercise Dependence [PDF]

Impulse: The Premier Undergraduate Neuroscience Journal, 2006
Endorphins are endogenous opioids released from the pituitary gland that are believed to mediate analgesia, induce euphoria, and play a role in the reward system in the brain. It has been suggested that endorphins are responsible for creating the relaxed

Hyperthermia and endorphins

Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 1993
This paper discusses the role of endogenous opioids in response to hyperthermia and the alterations observed in drug or alcohol addicts. Endorphins, rather than enkephalins are involved in adaptation to heat in the central nervous system. The pituitary secretion of beta endorphin together with ACTH in response to thermal stress provided the opportunity

The effectiveness of aerobic exercise on pain and disability in individuals with neck pain: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The present review aimed to investigate the effectiveness of aerobic exercise (AE) compared to other interventions in decreasing pain intensity and reducing disability in individuals with neck pain. A systematic review (SR) of randomized controlled trials was conducted. This SR was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42021231231).

Persistence of fatigue in the absence of pathophysiological mechanisms in some patients more than 2 years after the original SARS‐CoV‐2 infection

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Following an acute infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2), a substantial percentage of patients report the persistence of debilitating symptoms, often grouped in a syndrome termed ‘long COVID’. We sought to identify potential pathophysiological mechanisms responsible for the persistence, in some long COVID ...

Transcranial photobiomodulation with near‐infrared laser induces analgesia in rats

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) with a 1064 nm laser alleviated pain. Local field potential (LFP) intensity markedly increased following formalin injection, indicating nociceptive activation. However after tPBM this formalin‐induced LFP hyperactivation was diminished.

Potential health benefits of cold‐water immersion: the central role of PGC‐1α

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cold‐water immersion (CWI) elicits autonomic, somato‐motoric (shivering thermogenesis), endocrine and metabolic, sensory transduction, and local biophysical effects that may converge on the transcriptional co‐activator PGC‐1α (centre).

Lifestyle implications of the paradox and management of oxidative stress in sperm

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Lifestyle factors influencing male fertility. Schematic overview of lifestyle factors with beneficial (left) and detrimental (right) effects on male fertility. A balanced diet, regular moderate physical activity and stress management strategies support sperm function and redox homeostasis.

A biophysically-defined hyaluronic acid-based compound accelerates migration and stimulates the production of keratinocyte-derived neuromodulators

Cell Adhesion & Migration, 2019
Hyaluronic acid (HA) preparations are widely used in clinical practice and recent data suggest that commercially available HA-based compounds promote ulcer re-epithelialization and induce pain relief.

The aetiology of social deficits within mental health disorders: The role of the immune system and endogenous opioids

Brain, Behavior, & Immunity - Health, 2020
The American National Institute for Mental Health (NIMH) has put out a set of research goals that include a long-term plan to identify more reliable endogenous explanations for a wide variety of mental health disorders (Insel, 2013). In response to this,
