Mispositioned Neurokinin-1 Receptor-Expressing Neurons Underlie Heat Hyperalgesia in Disabled-1 Mutant Mice. [PDF]
Reelin (Reln) and Disabled-1 (Dab1) participate in the Reln-signaling pathway and when either is deleted, mutant mice have the same spinally mediated behavioral abnormalities, increased sensitivity to noxious heat and a profound loss in mechanical ...

Fear of pain potentiates nocebo hyperalgesia
Nocebo hyperalgesia has received sparse experimental attention compared to placebo analgesia. The aim of the present study was to investigate if personality traits and fear of pain could predict experimental nocebo hyperalgesia.

Abstract A 9‐month‐old Simmental fattening bull with a history of anorexia, severe salivation and marked bilateral swelling of the mandible was referred to the clinic. The physical examination and radiographs revealed a bilateral complete displaced mandibular fracture involving the symphysis. Treatment consisted of rostral mandibulectomy, including the

Analgesic Effects of Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolase Inhibition in a Rat Model of Neuropathic Pain [PDF]
Cannabinoid-based medicines have therapeutic potential for the treatment of pain. Augmentation of levels of endocannabinoids with inhibitors of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) is analgesic in models of acute and inflammatory pain states.

mTOR, a new potential target for chronic pain and opioid-induced tolerance and hyperalgesia
Chronic pain is a major public health problem with limited treatment options. Opioids remain a routine treatment for chronic pain, but extended exposure to opioid therapy can produce opioid tolerance and hyperalgesia.

This study shows that chronic alcohol exposure leads to sex‐specific disruptions in local field potentials, specifically causing changes to amygdala oscillations in females and prefrontal cortical and nucleus accumbens oscillations in males. These data may explain some of the sex differences observed in alcohol misuse and provide potential biomarkers ...

Loss of neurons from laminas I-III of the spinal dorsal horn is not required for development of tactile allodynia in the spared nerve injury model of neuropathic pain [PDF]
It has been proposed that death of inhibitory interneurons in the dorsal horn contributes to the neuropathic pain that follows partial nerve injury. In this study, we have used two approaches to test whether there is neuronal death in the dorsal horn in ...

The experience of pain is variable among certain cultures, ethnical groups and among individuals. This variability can be explained by environmental influence, genetic predisposition and plasticity of the existing neuronal pathways.

Quantitative sensory testing in painful hand osteoarthritis demonstrates features of peripheral sensitisation. [PDF]
Hand osteoarthritis (HOA) is a prevalent condition for which treatments are based on analgesia and physical therapies. Our primary objective was to evaluate pain perception in participants with HOA by assessing the characteristics of nodal involvement ...
