Metabotropic glutamate receptor 2/3 (mGluR2/3) activation suppresses TRPV1 sensitization in mouse, but not human sensory neurons [PDF]
The use of human tissue to validate putative analgesic targets identified in rodents is a promising strategy for improving the historically poor translational record of preclinical pain research.

Sigma-1 (σ1) receptor inhibition ameliorates neuropathic pain by inhibiting central sensitization. However, it is unknown whether σ1 receptor inhibition also decreases inflammatory hyperalgesia, or whether peripheral σ1 receptors are involved in this process.The purpose of this study was to determine the role of σ1 receptors in carrageenan-induced ...

Sigma (σ) receptors have attracted great interest since they are implicated in various cellular functions and biological processes and diseases, including various types of cancer. The receptor family consists of two subtypes: sigma-1 (σ1) and sigma-2 (σ2)

Ontogeny of purinergic receptor-regulated Ca2+ signaling in mouse cortical collecting duct epithelium [PDF]
Changes in ATP-induced increase in {[}Ca2+], during collecting duct ontogeny were studied in primary monolayer cultures of mouse ureteric bud (UB) and cortical collecting duct (CCD) cells by Fura-PE3 fluorescence ratio imaging.

Sigma‐1 receptor modulation of opioid receptor signaling
Sigma‐1 receptors (S1R) have been linked to numerous, diverse biological phenomena. However, current knowledge of S1R biology remains largely descriptive, and no clear molecular mechanisms of S1R action have been established. Previous work from our laboratory showed that S1R peptide ligands could modulate opiate analgesia in vivo. Opioid receptors have

Relationship between membrane phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate and receptor-mediated inhibition of native neuronal M channels [PDF]
The relationship between receptor-induced membrane phosphatidylinositol-4'5'-bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis and M-current inhibition was assessed in single-dissociated rat sympathetic neurons by simultaneous or parallel recording of membrane current and ...

Effect of sigma-1 receptor activation on corticosterone-induced mitochondrial damage in astrocytes
Objective To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of sigma-1 receptors on corticosterone-induced mitochondrial damage in astrocytes. Methods A corticosterone-induced primary astrocyte damage model was established, and the sigma-1 receptor ...
