Leptin and fractalkine: novel subcutaneous cytokines in burn injury
Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2020 Burn injury is a pathology underpinned by progressive and aberrant inflammation. It is a major clinical challenge to survival and quality of life. Although the complex local and disseminating pathological processes of a burn injury ultimately stem from ...

Pain without Nociceptors? Nav1.7-Independent Pain Mechanisms
Cell Reports, 2014 Nav1.7, a peripheral neuron voltage-gated sodium channel, is essential for pain and olfaction in mice and humans. We examined the role of Nav1.7 as well as Nav1.3, Nav1.8, and Nav1.9 in different mouse models of chronic pain.

A review on hydrogen sulfide: Is it pro-nociceptive or anti-nociceptive?
İstanbul Journal of Pharmacy, 2022 Pain is sensed by the activation of painful nociceptors in the periphery or by pain mediators, such as bradykinin, serotonin, histamine, and prostaglandin, released from the damaged tissue, afferent transmission to the medulla spinalis, and by trans- mission stages to the high centers over the dorsal horn. Pain, which was seen as only a warning sign in

Wellcome Open Research, 2018 Background: Functional deletion of the Scn9a (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 9) gene encoding sodium channel Nav1.7 makes humans and mice pain-free. Opioid signalling contributes to this analgesic state.

Changes in Activity of the Same Thalamic Neurons to Repeated Nociception in Behaving Mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The sensory thalamus has been reported to play a key role in central pain sensory modulation and processing, but its response to repeated nociception at thalamic level is not well known.

Nature Communications, 2022 The processing of nociception in the somatosensory cortex (S1) has yet to be fully understood. Here, the authors demonstrate that the dysgranular region in S1 has an affinity for nociception and is critically involved in pain-like behavior.

ATF4 selectively regulates heat nociception and contributes to kinesin-mediated TRPM3 trafficking
Nature Communications, 2021 The molecular mechanisms mediating nociception are unclear. Here, the authors show that the Activating Transcription Factor 4 (ATF4) is important for the response to heat nociception in mice and ATF4 role in mediating protein trafficking in dorsal root ...

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2023 Scorpion sting envenomations (SSE) are feared by the intense pain that they produce in victims. Pain from SSE is triggered mainly by the presence of neurotoxins in the scorpion venom that modulates voltage-gated ion channels.

The validity and applications of the analgesia nociception index: a narrative review
Frontiers in Surgery, 2023 Pain refers to the subjective, unpleasant experience that is related to illness or injury. In contrast to pain, nociception refers to the physiological neural processing of noxious stimuli, such as intra-operative surgical stimuli.
