Cannabinoid CB2 receptor‐mediated analgesia: mechanism‐based insights and therapeutic potential
Agonists of the cannabinoid 2 (CB2) receptor have shown promise for the treatment of pain in a variety of animal models. However, despite current preclinical evidence supporting the use of CB2 agonists for pain, successful translation of findings from preclinical models to human patients is lacking.

CXCL10 Involvement in Vestibular Migraine via the PI3K/AKT Signaling Pathway
CXCL10 activates the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, promoting the release of inflammatory factors, including IL‐1β, IL‐6, and TNF‐α, and is thus involved in the pathogenesis of VM. ABSTRACT Aims C‐X‐C motif chemokine ligand 10 (CXCL10) is a member of the CXC chemokine family, known as a classical pain‐related chemokine.

Repetitive single subarachnoid injections for trial administration of the intrathecal morphine pump in patients with intractable non-cancer pain -A case report- [PDF]
Since the early 1980s, the implantable intrathecal drug pump (ITDP) has been used increasingly to manage chronic pain. Prior to making a decision to implant an ITDP, trial administration of the intrathecal (IT) drug should be performed to estimate the ...
