A New Paradigm: 46 Structural Cell Types Function as Environment‐Supporting Innate Immune Cells, With Endothelial and Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells as Key Prototypes

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The scope, organization, and biological significance of innate immune functions across structural cell types remain poorly defined. To address these fundamental knowledge gaps, we analyzed experimental data of transcriptomes generated by our group and others.

The influence of μ-opioid and noradrenaline reuptake inhibition in the modulation of pain responsive neurones in the central amygdala by tapentadol in rats with neuropathy

, 2015
Treatments for neuropathic pain are either not fully effective or have problematic side effects. Combinations of drugs are often used. Tapentadol is a newer molecule that produces analgesia in various pain models through two inhibitory mechanisms, namely

Altered expression of the voltage-gated calcium channel subunit α2δ-1: a comparison between two experimental models of epilepsy and a sensory nerve ligation model of neuropathic pain.

, 2014
The auxiliary α2δ-1 subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels is up-regulated in dorsal root ganglion neurons following peripheral somatosensory nerve damage, in several animal models of neuropathic pain.

Protective Effects of Imeglimin Against Oxaliplatin‐Induced Peripheral Neurotoxicity: Evidence From In Vitro and In Vivo Studies

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oxaliplatin is a platinum‐based anticancer agent widely used for gastrointestinal malignancies; however, it is known to cause dose‐dependent peripheral neuropathy (OIPN), a characteristic adverse effect. OIPN results in a reduced quality of life and often necessitates dose reduction or discontinuation of oxaliplatin; however, effective ...

Antinociceptive effects of lacosamide on spinal neuronal and behavioural measures of pain in a rat model of osteoarthritis.

, 2014
Alterations in voltage-gated sodium channel (VGSC) function have been linked to chronic pain and are good targets for analgesics. Lacosamide (LCM) is a novel anticonvulsant that enhances the slow inactivation state of VGSCs. This conformational state can

Outcomes of surgical versus conservative treatment in pediatric median arcuate ligament syndrome

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Median arcuate ligament syndrome (MALS) involves compression of the celiac artery and presents with gastrointestinal symptoms. We evaluated outcomes after surgical versus conservative management in pediatric MALS. Methods We reviewed charts of symptomatic patients aged 7–21 years diagnosed by ultrasound and/or computed tomography ...

Pharmacology of Neuropathic Pain

The thesis is about the pharmacology of neuropathic pain. Neuropathic pain is a chronic and complicated type of pain that happens when there is damage or disease affecting the nerves responsible for sensing touch, temperature and pain.
