Animal models of cisplatin‐induced neuropathic pain

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This article illustrates the modeling process of a cisplatin‐induced neuropathic pain model in rats or mice. Multiple modeling tests are required for rats or mice before, during, and after modeling. The appropriate injection method, dose, and modeling method are selected, and multiple assays are chosen for evaluation and comparison.

μ‐Opioid Receptor Dynamics in the Parameningeal Tissue During Migraine Attacks

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The possible impact of meningeal μ‐opioid receptor (μOR) binding in migraine remains unknown. This study investigated μOR availability in the cranial parameninges involved in migraine initiation via nociceptor activation. Methods We used positron emission tomography with [11C] carfentanil, and measured μOR availability in meninges and ...

Electrically Evoked Compound Action Potentials in Spinal Cord Stimulation: Implications for Preclinical Research Models

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives The study aimed to assess the feasibility of recording electrically evoked compound action potentials (ECAPs) from the rat spinal cord. To achieve this, we characterized electrophysiological responses of dorsal column (DC) axons from electrical stimulation and quantified the relationship between ECAP and motor thresholds (ECAPTs and

Cationic Nanoparticles Mitigate Chemotherapy‐Induced Peripheral Neuropathy

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), caused by chemodrugs like paclitaxel (PTX), leads to severe neuropathic pain. This study evaluates PTX‐loaded PAMAM‐Chol nanoparticles (PTX‐NPs) to alleviate CIPN. PTX‐NPs achieve 99% drug‐loading efficiency, reduce neurotoxicity, and in murine models, decrease cold allodynia by 85% while restoring ...

The Chemistry and Biology of the Tetrodotoxin Natural Product Family

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Tetrodotoxin is best known as the poison of the pufferfish, which is a delicacy in Japanese cuisine. Its toxicity arises from the selective blockage of NaV channels, which is depicted for the NaV1.7 pore, highlighting the DEKA motif, which permeates sodium ions.

A Core Head, Neck, and Neuroanatomy Syllabus for Physical Therapy Student Education

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Head, neck, and neuroanatomy are essential components of physical therapy education due to their broad clinical applications. Detailed syllabi exist for medical students, yet none have been developed for physical therapy. This study aimed to produce an International Federation of Associations of Anatomists core head, neck, and neuroanatomy ...

Ethnomedicinal Uses, Phytochemistry, Pharmacological Activities, and Toxicology of the Subfamily Gomphrenoideae (Amaranthaceae): A Comprehensive Review

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The subfamily Gomphrenoideae is composed of about 480 accepted species, many of which have been historically used as medicinal plants, reason why they have been studied in terms of chemical profile, biological activity, and safety. This review consolidates the advances in research on this subfamily over the past 47 years, emphasizing its ...

Opioid regulation of Mu receptor internalisation: relevance to the development of tolerance and dependence [PDF]

, 2010
Internalisation of the mu opioid receptor from the surface of cells is generally achieved by receptor occupancy with agonist ligands of high efficacy. However, in many situations the potent analgesic morphine fails to promote internalisation effectively ...
