Inhibition of mechanical allodynia in neuropathic pain by TLR5-mediated A-fiber blockade
Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) expression is found to be enriched in mouse dorsal root ganglion (DRG) A-fiber neurons known to mediate mechanical allodynia, a form of chronic neuropathic pain. Selective silencing...

Resolvin E1 Inhibits Neuropathic Pain and Spinal Cord Microglial Activation Following Peripheral Nerve Injury
Accumulating evidence indicates that activation of spinal cord microglia plays an important role in the genesis of neuropathic pain. Resolvin E1 (E1) is derived from omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid and exhi...

Open AccessAcute morphine activates satellite glial cells and up-regulates IL-1β in dorsal root ganglia in mice via matrix metalloprotease-9
Activation of spinal cord glial cells such as microglia and astrocytes has been shown to regulate chronic opioid-induced antinociceptive tolerance and hyperalgesia, due to spinal up-regulation of the proinflam...

Toll-like receptor 7 mediates pruritus
Liu and colleagues report that toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7), which is typically thought to be expressed in immune cells and to function to regulate innate immunity, is expressed and acts in C-fiber primary sens...

Resolvins RvE1 and RvD1 attenuate inflammatory pain via central and peripheral actions
The omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid alleviate inflammatory pain in patients. Ru-Rong Ji and his colleagues find that the resolvins RvE1 and RvD1, which are derived from omega...

Distinct roles of matrix metalloproteases in the early- and late-phase development of neuropathic pain
Treatment of neuropathic pain, triggered by multiple insults to the nervous system, is a clinical challenge because the underlying mechanisms of neuropathic pain development remain poorly understood1,2,3,4. Most ...
