Nanoscale all-oxide-heterostructured bio-inspired optoresponsive nociceptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Retina nociceptor, as a key sensory receptor, not only enables the transport of warning signals to the human central nervous system upon its exposure to noxious stimuli, but also triggers the motor response that minimizes potential sensitization. In this

Upregulation of TRPM3 in nociceptors innervating inflamed tissue

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Genetic ablation or pharmacological inhibition of the heat-activated cation channel TRPM3 alleviates inflammatory heat hyperalgesia, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown.

Pain threshold assessment in relation to neural mobilization therapy - 10.4025/actascihealthsci.v34ispec.11988

open access: yesActa Scientiarum. Health Sciences, 2012
Nervous System Mobilization is used to restore the biomechanics of the nervous system and adjacent structures, promoting the return to their duties. This study evaluated the pain threshold to pressure, to cold, and the cold pain intensity in healthy ...

Mrgprd Enhances Excitability in Specific Populations of Cutaneous Murine Polymodal Nociceptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor D (Mrgprd) is selectively expressed in nonpeptidergic nociceptors that innervate the outer layers of mammalian skin.

Chloride – The Underrated Ion in Nociceptors

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
In contrast to pain processing neurons in the spinal cord, where the importance of chloride conductances is already well established, chloride homeostasis in primary afferent neurons has received less attention.

Contribution of T-Type Calcium Channels to Spinal Cord Injury-Induced Hyperexcitability of Nociceptors

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2020
A hyperexcitable state and spontaneous activity of nociceptors have been suggested to play a critical role in the development of chronic neuropathic pain following spinal cord injury (SCI).

The Role of Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone at Peripheral Nociceptors: Implications for Pain Modulation

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2020
Peripheral nociceptors and their synaptic partners utilize neuropeptides for signal transmission. Such communication tunes the excitatory and inhibitory function of nociceptor-based circuits, eventually contributing to pain modulation.

Type I Interferons Act Directly on Nociceptors to Produce Pain Sensitization: Implications for Viral Infection-Induced Pain

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience, 2019
One of the first signs of viral infection is body-wide aches and pain. Although this type of pain usually subsides, at the extreme, viral infections can induce painful neuropathies that can last for decades.

Nerve growth factor sensitizes nociceptors to C‐fibre selective supra‐threshold electrical stimuli in human skin

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Pain, 2020
Intradermal injection of 1 µg nerve growth factor (NGF) causes sustained nociceptor sensitization. Slowly depolarizing electrical current preferentially activates C‐nociceptors.

Contribution of Piezo2 to endothelium-dependent pain. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BackgroundWe evaluated the role of a mechanically-gated ion channel, Piezo2, in mechanical stimulation-induced enhancement of hyperalgesia produced by the pronociceptive vasoactive mediator endothelin-1, an innocuous mechanical stimulus-induced ...
