Zeta Inhibitory Peptide as a Novel Therapy to Control Chronic Visceral Hypersensitivity in a Rat Model. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The pathogenesis of multiple chronic visceral pain syndromes, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), is not well known, and as a result current therapies are ineffective. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of spinal protein kinase

Small-Conductance Ca2+-Activated K+ Channel 2 in the Dorsal Horn of Spinal Cord Participates in Visceral Hypersensitivity in Rats

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
Visceral hypersensitivity is a highly complex and subjective phenomenon associated with multiple levels of the nervous system and a wide range of neurotransmission.

Central neural mechanisms mediating human visceral hypersensitivity [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Gastrointestinal and Liver Physiology, 2001
Although visceral hypersensitivity is thought to be important in generating symptoms in functional gastrointestinal disorders, the neural mechanisms involved are poorly understood. We recently showed that central sensitization (hyperexcitability of spinal cord sensory neurones) may play an important role.

Electroacupuncture Attenuates Post-Inflammatory IBS-Associated Visceral and Somatic Hypersensitivity and Correlates With the Regulatory Mechanism of Epac1–Piezo2 Axis

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Electroacupuncture (EA) is considered to have a therapeutic effect in the relief of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)-associated visceral hypersensitivity via the reduction of the level of 5‐hydroxytryptamine (5‐HT) and 5-HT3 receptors (5-HT3R).

Early‐life adversity, epigenetics, and visceral hypersensitivity [PDF]

open access: yesNeurogastroenterology & Motility, 2017
AbstractAbdominal pain is associated with many gastrointestinal dysfunctions, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), functional dyspepsia, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Visceral hypersensitivity is a key reason for development of abdominal pain that presents in these gastrointestinal disorders/diseases.

Toll-Like Receptor 4 in Paraventricular Nucleus Mediates Visceral Hypersensitivity Induced by Maternal Separation

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2017
Neonatal maternal separation (MS) is a major early life stress that increases the risk of emotional disorders, visceral pain perception and other brain dysfunction.

Blockage of High-Affinity Choline Transporter Increases Visceral Hypersensitivity in Rats with Chronic Stress

open access: yesGastroenterology Research and Practice, 2018
Background. Visceral hypersensitivity is a common feature of irritable bowel syndrome. Cholinergic system involves in the development of visceral hypersensitivity, and high-affinity choline transporter (CHT1) is of crucial importance in choline uptake ...

Visceral pain hypersensitivity in functional gastrointestinal disorders [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Medical Bulletin, 2009
Functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) are a highly prevalent group of heterogeneous disorders whose diagnostic criteria are symptom based in the absence of a demonstrable structural or biochemical abnormality. Chronic abdominal pain or discomfort is a defining characteristic of these disorders and a proportion of patients may display heightened

Neurotrophin signaling and visceral hypersensitivity [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Biology, 2014
Neurotrophin family are traditionally recognized for their nerve growth promoting function and are recently identified as crucial factors in regulating neuronal activity in the central and peripheral nervous systems. The family members including nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) are reported ...

Tandospirone prevents stress-induced anxiety-like behavior and visceral hypersensitivity by suppressing theta oscillation enhancement via 5-HT1A receptors in the anterior cingulate cortex in rats

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
Tandospirone, a third-generation of antianxiety agent with fewer side effects, has been widely used in the treatment of anxiety. Moreover, it is interesting that tandospirone has been found to relieve gastrointestinal symptoms in patients with refractory
