Journal ArticleDOI
Noradrenergic Locus Coeruleus pathways in pain modulation.
Meritxell Llorca-Torralba,Gisela Borges,Fani Neto,Juan Antonio Mico,Esther Berrocoso,Esther Berrocoso +5 more
TL;DR: The main goal of this review is to bring together the data available regarding the noradrenergic system in relation to pain, particularly focusing on the ascending and descending LC projections in different conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neurotrophins Role in Depression Neurobiology: A Review of Basic and Clinical Evidence
TL;DR: Preclinical and clinical studies aimed at disclosing the role of neurotrophins in the pathophysiological mechanisms of depression and the mode of action of antidepressants, which favour the neurotrophic/neurogenic hypothesis are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of ERK phosphorylation decreases nociceptive behaviour in monoarthritic rats.
Célia D. Cruz,Célia D. Cruz,Fani Neto,José Manuel Castro-Lopes,Stephen B. McMahon,Francisco Cruz +5 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that ERK phosphorylation in spinal cord neurones plays an important role in chronic inflammatory articular pain and that its inhibition may provide significant anti‐nociception.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intra-articular injection of collagenase in the knee of rats as an alternative model to study nociception associated with osteoarthritis
Sara Adães,Sara Adães,Marcelo Mendonça,Telmo N Santos,Telmo N Santos,José Manuel Castro-Lopes,José Manuel Castro-Lopes,Joana Ferreira-Gomes,Joana Ferreira-Gomes,Fani Neto,Fani Neto +10 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the intra-articular injection of 500 U collagenase in the knee of rats can be an alternative model for the study of nociceptive alterations associated with relevant osteoarthritis-like joint structural changes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Supraspinal metabolic activity changes in the rat during adjuvant monoarthritis
Fani Neto,J. Schadrack,A. Ableitner,José Manuel Castro-Lopes,Peter Bartenstein,Walter Zieglgänsberger,Thomas R. Tölle +6 more
TL;DR: The present data show that a large array of supraspinal structures displays elevated metabolic activity during painful monoarthritis, with a non-linear profile for the time-points investigated.
