Interleukin-6: a local pain trigger?
Pain management in conditions of chronic inflammation is a clinical challenge, and increasing our understanding of the mechanisms driving this type of pain is important. In the previous issue of Arthritis Research & Therapy, Boettger and colleagues examine the role of IL-6 in antigen-induced arthritis using the IL-6 neutralizing soluble glycoprotein 130 and link IL-6 to a pathophysiological rol...
متن کاملMyofascial trigger point pain.
Myofascial trigger point pain is an extremely prevalent cause of persistent pain disorders in all parts of the body, not just the head, neck, and face. Features include deep aching pain in any structure, referred from focally tender points in taut bands of skeletal muscle (the trigger points). Diagnosis depends on accurate palpation with 2-4 kg/cm2 of pressure for 10 to 20 seconds over the susp...
متن کاملAssociation of catastrophizing with interleukin-6 responses to acute pain.
Catastrophizing exerts its deleterious effects on pain via multiple pathways, and some researchers have reported that high levels of catastrophizing are associated with enhanced physiological reactivity to painful stimulation. In this project, 42 generally healthy adults underwent a series of psychophysical pain testing procedures assessing responses to noxious mechanical, heat, and cold stimul...
متن کاملThe role of interleukin-6 in nociception and pain.
IMPLICATIONS That IL-6 is an interesting target in the study of pain is underscored by its biomolecular properties, its localization after experimental pain, and its modulating effect on pain after administration.
متن کاملHyaluronate-enhanced hematopoiesis: two different receptors trigger the release of interleukin-1beta and interleukin-6 from bone marrow macrophages.
The glycosaminoglycan hyaluronate (HA) is part of the extracellular environment in bone marrow. We show here that HA activates signal transduction cascades important for hemopoiesis. In myeloid and lymphoid long-term bone marrow cultures (LTBMC), treatment with hyaluronidase (HA'ase) results in reduced production of both progenitor and mature cells. Exogeneous HA added to LTBMC had the opposite...
