The upside of epilepsy: Theories of an evolutionary paradox

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The persistence of common, heritable conditions, like epilepsy, that are associated with reduced reproductive fitness is an evolutionary paradox. Endogenous analgesic, anti‐depressant, and inflammatory mechanisms able to repair compromised functions can offer advantages in unexpected crises.

Activated Microglia in Nociception

open access: yesPain Physician, 2010
Microglial cells appear to play a vital role in the initiation of certain neuropathic pain states. In order to initiate neuropathic pain, microglia need to be activated. Microglia activation in the spinal cord involves both hypertrophy as well as hyperplasia, progressing through a hypertrophic morphology, with thickened and retracted processes ...

Models of Visceral Nociception [PDF]

open access: yesILAR Journal, 1999
Pains arising from the viscera constitute a large portion of clinically treated pains. They are characterized by poor localization; immobility with tonic increases in muscle tone; and vigorous but nonspecific changes in autonomic function, such as changes in respiration, heart rate, and blood pressure.

Neuroinflammation, Mast Cells, and Glia: Dangerous Liaisons [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The perspective of neuroinflammation as an epiphenomenon following neuron damage is being replaced by the awareness of glia and their importance in neural functions and disorders.

TrpA1 regulates thermal nociception in Drosophila.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Pain is a significant medical concern and represents a major unmet clinical need. The ability to perceive and react to tissue-damaging stimuli is essential in order to maintain bodily integrity in the face of environmental danger.

Postoperative Models of Nociception [PDF]

open access: yesILAR Journal, 1999
Even though it is a costly, poorly understood problem, very little effort has been dedicated toward research on the mechanisms of acute postoperative pain. Presumably, if we learn more about the etiology of acute incisional pain and the sensory processes that intensify pain after surgery, new treatment methods can be advanced.

Analgesic targets identified in mouse sensory neuron somata and terminal pain translatomes

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary: The relationship between transcription and protein expression is complex. We identified polysome-associated RNA transcripts in the somata and central terminals of mouse sensory neurons in control, painful (plus nerve growth factor), and pain ...

Research progress on the depth of anesthesia monitoring based on the electroencephalogram

open access: yesIbrain, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 32-43, Spring 2025.
Electroencephalogram (EEG) can noninvasive, continuous, and real‐time monitor the state of brain electrical activity, and the monitoring of EEG can reflect changes in the depth of anesthesia (DOA). The development of artificial intelligence can enable anesthesiologists to extract, analyze, and quantify DOA from complex EEG data.
