Pain Research and Management, 2000 It has been suggested that opioid tolerance and dependence share common mechanisms with neuropathic pain. This short review deals with the role of glutamate and glutamate receptors in opioid tolerance and dependence, and neuropathic pain.

Opioids and opioid receptors orchestrate wound repair [PDF]
Translational Research, 2017 We have previously shown that topical opioids including morphine and its congeners promote healing of full thickness ischemic wounds in rats. We examined the contribution of mu opioid receptor (MOPr)-mediated healing of full thickness ischemic wounds using MOPr and delta or kappa opioid receptor knockout (KO) mice. Wound closure in the early (day 5) as

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This work proposes the first perovskite/graphene heterostructure‐based FET biosensor with uniquely biotunable ternary logic gating functionality for the detection of human IL6 cytokines. The biosensor integrates a lateral perovskite‐on‐graphene heterostructure phototransistor with a vertical bio‐nano‐photonic filter, achieving ultrahigh sensitivity ...

Advances in Medical Devices for Augmented Acupuncture Therapy
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Traditional acupuncture therapy faces several challenges in clinical applications, such as complex operation procedures and prolonged therapeutic periods. By incorporating physical stimulations and drug delivery technologies, engineered acupuncture needles (EANs) can enhance therapeutic efficacy, improve patient compliance, as well as mitigate ...

Better agonist for the opioid receptors [PDF]
Chemistry Central Journal, 2018 This commentary highlights the recent work published in journal Nature on the structural based discovery of novel analgesic compounds for opioid receptors with minimal effects. Manglik et al. selectively targeted the Gi based μOR pathway instead of the β-arrestin pathway of the opioids. The computational screening of millions of compounds showed a list

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Neuropathic pain management via repeated electroacupuncture. Abstract Background Existing remedial approaches for relieving neuropathic pain (NPP) are challenging and open the way for alternative therapeutic measures such as electroacupuncture (EA). The mechanism underlying the antinociceptive effects of repeated EA sessions, particularly concerning ...
