Morphine-induced hyperalgesia involves mu opioid receptors and the metabolite morphine-3-glucuronide

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Opiates are potent analgesics but their clinical use is limited by side effects including analgesic tolerance and opioid-induced hyperalgesia (OIH). The Opiates produce analgesia and other adverse effects through activation of the mu opioid receptor (MOR)

Hypofunctional TrkA Accounts for the Absence of Pain Sensitization in the African Naked Mole-Rat

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
The naked mole-rat is a subterranean rodent lacking several pain behaviors found in humans, rats, and mice. For example, nerve growth factor (NGF), an important mediator of pain sensitization, fails to produce thermal hyperalgesia in naked mole-rats. The

Nocebo hyperalgesia and the startle response [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience, 2016
The literature on the effects of nocebo on pain is sparse. The present experimental study investigated whether suggestions of nocebo hyperalgesia modified the startle response and whether increased startle contributed to the nocebo hyperalgesic effect.A design with four groups was employed; the participants were randomized into either a placebo group ...

EP2 receptor antagonism reduces peripheral and central hyperalgesia in a preclinical mouse model of endometriosis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Endometriosis is an incurable gynecological disorder characterized by debilitating pain and the establishment of innervated endometriosis lesions outside the uterus. In a preclinical mouse model of endometriosis we demonstrated overexpression of the PGE2-

Nalmefene vs. dexmedetomidine for prevention of postoperative hyperalgesia in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecological surgery with remifentanil infusion: A randomized double-blind controlled trial

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Intraoperative remifentanil infusion may paradoxically induce post-surgical hyperalgesia. Dexmedetomidine reportedly reduces opioid-induced hyperalgesia. Nalmefene selectively reverses several side-effects of opioids without impairing analgesia.

Local and Widespread Pressure Pain Hyperalgesia Is Not Side Specific in Females with Unilateral Neck Pain that Can Be Reproduced during Passive Neck Rotation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Current evidence for widespread hyperalgesia in non-specific neck pain (NSNP) is unclear. It is currently recommended to group NSNP patients according to pain-provoking movements.

The Complement System Component C5a Produces Thermal Hyperalgesia via Macrophage-to-Nociceptor Signaling That Requires NGF and TRPV1

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2016
The complement cascade is a principal component of innate immunity. Recent studies have underscored the importance of C5a and other components of the complement system in inflammatory and neuropathic pain, although the underlying mechanisms are largely ...

Optoelectronic Devices for In‐Sensor Computing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The raw data obtained directly from sensors in the noisy analogue domain is often unstructured, which lacks a predefined format or organization and does not conform to a specific data model. Optoelectronic devices for in‐sensor visual processing can integrate perception, memory, and processing functions in the same physical units, which can compress ...
