Characterization of migraineurs presenting interictal widespread pressure hyperalgesia identified using a tender point count: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesThe Journal of Headache and Pain, 2017
Background Migraineurs exhibit pain hypersensitivity throughout the body during and between migraine headaches. Migraine is classified as a central sensitivity syndrome, typified by fibromyalgia showing widespread pressure hyperalgesia determined by a ...

Alpha9 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and the treatment of pain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Chronic pain is a vexing worldwide problem that causes substantial disability and consumes significant medical resources. Although there are numerous analgesic medications, these work through a small set of molecular mechanisms.

Supraspinal contributions to hyperalgesia [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999
Tissue injury is associated with sensitization of nociceptors and subsequent changes in the excitability of central (spinal) neurons, termed central sensitization. Nociceptor sensitization and central sensitization are considered to underlie, respectively, development of primary hyperalgesia and secondary hyperalgesia. Because central

Central Amygdala Circuits Mediate Hyperalgesia in Alcohol-Dependent Rats

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2018
Alcohol withdrawal symptoms contribute to excessive alcohol drinking and relapse in alcohol-dependent individuals. Among these symptoms, alcohol withdrawal promotes hyperalgesia, but the neurological underpinnings of this phenomenon are not known ...

Downregulation of M-channels in lateral habenula mediates hyperalgesia during alcohol withdrawal in rats

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Hyperalgesia often occurs in alcoholics, especially during abstinence, yet the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. The lateral habenula (LHb) has been implicated in the pathophysiology of pain and alcohol use disorders.

Individual differences in pain sensitivity are associated with cognitive network functional connectivity following one night of experimental sleep disruption. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Previous work suggests that sleep disruption can contribute to poor pain modulation. Here, we used experimental sleep disruption to examine the relationship between sleep disruption-induced pain sensitivity and functional connectivity (FC) of cognitive ...

Inhibition of toll-like receptor 4 alleviates hyperalgesia induced by acute dural inflammation in experimental migraine

open access: yesMolecular Pain, 2018
Objective Although nociceptive sensitisation is an important pathophysiological process in migraine and migraine chronification, its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), a pattern-recognition molecule, has a critical role in

Visualization of trigeminal ganglion sensory neuronal signaling regulated by Cdk5

open access: yesCell Reports, 2022
Summary: The mechanisms underlying facial pain are still incompletely understood, posing major therapeutic challenges. Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) is a key neuronal kinase involved in pain signaling.
