Spinal sigma-1 receptors activate NADPH oxidase 2 leading to the induction of pain hypersensitivity in mice and mechanical allodynia in neuropathic rats.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that spinal Sig-1Rs modulate Nox2 activation and ROS production in the spinal cord, and ultimately contribute to the Sig- 1R-induced pain hypersensitivity and the peripheral nerve injury-induced induction of chronic neuropathic pain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microglial interleukin-1β in the ipsilateral dorsal horn inhibits the development of mirror-image contralateral mechanical allodynia through astrocyte activation in a rat model of inflammatory pain.

TL;DR: Results suggest that spinal IL-1&bgr; derived from activated microglia temporarily suppresses astrocyte activation, which can ultimately prevent the development of contralateral MA under inflammatory conditions, and imply that microglial IL- 1&b gr; plays an important role in regulating the induction of inflammatory MIP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Blockade of peripheral P2Y1 receptors prevents the induction of thermal hyperalgesia via modulation of TRPV1 expression in carrageenan-induced inflammatory pain rats: Involvement of p38 MAPK phosphorylation in DRGs

TL;DR: Data demonstrate a sequential role for P2Y1R, p38 MAPK and TRPV1 in inflammation-induced thermal hyperalgesia; thus, peripheral P2y1Rs activation modulates p38MAPK signaling and TRpV1 expression, which ultimately leads to the induction of thermal hyperAlgesia.
