Mechanical sensitization of sensory afferents after passive transfer of fibromyalgia IgG

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In addition to widespread pain and fatigue, people with fibromyalgia (FM) experience sensory abnormalities and report lingering, painful sensations after touch or mechanical probing of the skin. Administration of IgG purified from FM patients to mice transfers symptoms and signs of FM.

TRIP8bnano peptide prevents cAMP binding to HCN2 channels alleviating pain‐like behaviors in rats with neuropathic pain

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We tested the hypothesis that cAMP binding to HCN2 channels in nociceptors is a causal driver of neuropathic pain by using TRIP8bnano, a synthetic peptide we previously developed as a selective antagonist of cAMP in HCN channels. TRIP8bnano effectively abolishes cAMP potentiation of HCN2 currents in small‐diameter DRG neurons and

Affective CT‐touch attenuates cortical responses and subjective attention during temporal summation of second pain

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The study investigated the modulatory effects of affective touch on temporal summation of second pain (TSSP) in 32 romantic couples (N = 64). The design included a dyadic session (partner's CT‐optimal stroking vs. static touch) and an individual session (robotic CT‐touch vs. vibration control).

Trafficking and potentiation of Nav1.7 and Nav1.8 channels are mediated by IQGAP1

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend IQGAP1 binds to the voltage‐gated Nav1.7 and Nav1.8 channels and TRPA1 channels in sensory neurons. Inflammatory mediators (IM), including PGE2 and TNFα, released during nerve injury and inflammation activate intracellular signalling messengers such as PKA, p38 MAPK and Cdc42 through their respective receptors.

Hypoxia‐induced vulnerability of the somatosensory nervous system

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Sensory neurons are highly energy dependent and rely on sufficient oxygen availability to maintain metabolic stability and effective neurocommunication. Within the somatosensory system, even modest reductions in tissue oxygen tension impair neuronal respiration, forcing a shift toward less efficient metabolic pathways that ...

Effect of Remimazolam on Pain Perception and Opioid-Induced Hyperalgesia in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Urologic Surgery—A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Study

Medicina
Background and Objectives: The effects of midazolam, a benzodiazepine, on pain perception are complex on both spinal and supraspinal levels. It is not yet known whether remimazolam clinically attenuates or worsens pain. The present study investigated the

Peripheral regeneration of Aβ low‐threshold mechanoreceptors is limited despite activation of regenerative transcriptional pathways

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The regeneration of Aβ low‐threshold mechanoreceptors (Aβ‐LTMRs), sensory neurons responsible for discriminative touch, has not previously been explored. Here, we took advantage of the selective expression of Calb1 in Aβ‐LTMRs to generate two genetic mouse models for studying their regenerative response after nerve injury.

The Use of Extended Reality Distraction Methods During Needle‐Related Procedures in Pediatric Hospital Care—Children's Experiences

Journal for Specialists in Pediatric Nursing, Volume 31, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose To describe children's experiences of using extended reality (XR) distraction, namely virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), during needle‐related procedures. Design and Methods An exploratory, prospective convergent parallel mixed‐methods design was employed.

Satellite Glial Cells Synthesize and Release GABA to Activate Extrasynaptic GABAA Receptors That Modulate Dorsal Root Ganglia Neuron Excitability

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 9, September 2026.
Mechanism of synthesis, release, receptor activation, uptake, and degradation of GABA in dorsal root ganglia (DRG). Left: GABA is synthesized from putrescine in satellite glial cells (SGCs). After being released by Best1 channel, it activates GABAA receptors in sensory neurons, producing a chloride current.
