Calcineurin as a Nociceptor Modulator
Calcineurin may be involved in affecting nociceptive processes in multiple circumstances. It is conceivable that interfering with calcineurin’s normal role in contributing to glial resting membrane potential, via its effects on the ion channel (TRESK) [tandem-pore-domain weakly inward rectifying potassium channels (TWIK)-related spinal cord potassium ...

TNF-α/TNFR1 Signaling Is Required for the Development and Function of Primary Nociceptors [PDF]
SummaryPrimary nociceptors relay painful touch information from the periphery to the spinal cord. Although it is established that signals generated by receptor tyrosine kinases TrkA and Ret coordinate the development of distinct nociceptive circuits ...

Peripheral Deltorphin II Inhibits Nociceptors Following Nerve Injury
Clinical and preclinical studies have revealed that local administration of opioid agonists into peripheral tissue attenuates inflammatory pain. However, few studies have examined whether peripherally restricted opioids are effective in reducing ...

A search for activation of C-nociceptors by sympathetic fibers in complex regional pain syndrome [PDF]
Objective—Although the term ‘reflex sympathetic dystrophy’ has been replaced by ‘complex regional pain syndrome’ (CRPS) type I, there remains a widespread presumption that the sympathetic nervous system is actively involved in mediating chronic ...

HMGB1 released from nociceptors mediates inflammation.
Inflammation, the body's primary defensive response system to injury and infection, is triggered by molecular signatures of microbes and tissue injury. These molecules also stimulate specialized sensory neurons, termed nociceptors.

Function and Anatomy of Fast Nociceptors
Pain, a fundamental and evolutionarily conserved physiological mechanism, allows organisms to detect and avoid potential harm. In the absence of pain perception (e.g.

Secondary hyperalgesia is mediated by heat-insensitive A-fibre nociceptors.
It is believed that secondary hyperalgesia (the increased sensitivity to mechanical nociceptive stimuli that develops after cutaneous tissue injury in the surrounding uninjured skin) is mediated by a subclass of nociceptors: the slowly adapting A-fibre ...

Using extracellular single‐fibre recordings from the saphenous nerve in pig in vivo, we investigated peak following frequencies (5–100 Hz) in different classes of C‐nociceptors and their modulation by nerve growth factor. Classes were defined by sensory (

Responses of Cutaneous A-Fiber Nociceptors to Noxious Cold
Simone, Donald A. and Keith C. Kajander. Responses of cutaneous A fiber nociceptors to noxious cold. J. Neurophysiol. 77: 2049–2060, 1997. Responses of cutaneous nociceptors to natural stimuli, particularly mechanical and heat stimuli, have been well ...
