Journal ArticleDOI
Use of intrathecal SNX-111, a novel, N-type, voltage-sensitive, calcium channel blocker, in the management of intractable brachial plexus avulsion pain.
TL;DR: SNX-111 is a potent analgesic, antihyperesthesic, and antiallodynic agent in neuropathic pain that produced dose-dependent pain relief in a 43-year-old male patient with a 23-year history of intractable deafferentation and phantom limb pain secondary to brachial plexus avulsion and subsequent amputation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pharmacotherapeutic potential of omega-conotoxin MVIIA (SNX-111), an N-type neuronal calcium channel blocker found in the venom of Conus magus.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This up-regulation of brainstem cholinergic receptors suggests a problem with release of acetylcholine, which, together with previous reports of an impairment of dopamine release, may be indicative of a fundamental membrane problem in narcolepsy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sympatholysis after neuron-specific, N-type, voltage-sensitive calcium channel blockade: first demonstration of N-channel function in humans.
TL;DR: The data presented demonstrate that SNX-111 is biologically active in humans and indicate for the first time a neurophysiologic function of N-type VSCCs in humans.
