Spinal interleukin-1β inhibits astrocyte cytochrome P450c17 expression which controls the development of mechanical allodynia in a mouse model of neuropathic pain

TL;DR: Investigation of the possible involvement of interleukin-1β in altering P450c17 expression during the induction phase of neuropathic pain implies that spinal IL-1 β plays an important role as an early, but transient, control mechanism in the development of peripheral neuropathicPain via the inhibition of astrocyte P450 c17 expression and astroCyte activation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Peripheral neurosteroids enhance P2X receptor-induced mechanical allodynia via a sigma-1 receptor-mediated mechanism

TL;DR: It is shown that peripheral neurosteroids potentiate P2X-induced mechanical allodynia and that this action is mediated by sigma-1, but not by GABAA nor NMDA, receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spinal Sigma-1 Receptor-mediated Dephosphorylation of Astrocytic Aromatase Plays a Key Role in Formalin-induced Inflammatory Nociception.

TL;DR: Results suggest that dephosphorylation is an important regulatory mechanism involved in the rapid activation of aromatase and that spinal sigma-1 receptors mediate this deph phosphorylation of arom atase through an intrinsic calcineurin pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spinal Nitric Oxide Synthase Type II Increases Neurosteroid-metabolizing Cytochrome P450c17 Expression in a Rodent Model of Neuropathic Pain.

TL;DR: Results provide strong support for the hypothesis that activation of NOS-II increases the mRNA and protein levels of P450c17 in the spinal cord, ultimately leading to the development of central sensitization and neuropathic pain induced by peripheral nerve injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

nNOS-PSD95 interactions activate the PKC-ε isoform leading to increased GluN1 phosphorylation and the development of neuropathic mechanical allodynia in mice

TL;DR: Results demonstrate that spinal nNOS-PSD95 interactions play an important role in PKC-dependent GluN1 phosphorylation via activation of thePKC-ε isoform, and ultimately contributes to the development of MA in peripheral neuropathy.
