Intrathecal pertussis toxin induces thermal hyperalgesia: involvement of excitatory and inhibitory amino acids.
Intrathecal pertussis toxin injection has been used as a neuropathic pain model. In the present study, its effects on cerebrospinal fluid biochemistry and nociceptive behavioral expression were examined in rats. Cerebrospinal fluid dialysate samples were collected and pertussis toxin was injected using an intrathecally implanted dialysis loop catheter; samples were collected and hyperalgesia be...
متن کاملThe attenuating effect of curcumin on morphine dependence in rats: the involvement of spinal microglial cells and inflammatory cytokines
Background: New evidence suggests an important role for spinal glial cells in development of opioid dependence. Curcumin, a component of the Curcuma Longa, has shown to act as a suppressor of microglial cells. The main goal of this study was to explore the attenuating effects of curcumin on morphine dependence with a focus on spinal microglial cells and inflammatory cytokines. Methods: In...

متن کاملRepeated 100 Hz TENS for the Treatment of Chronic Inflammatory Hyperalgesia and Suppression of Spinal Release of Substance P in Monoarthritic Rats
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) has been shown to be an effective measure for pain relief. The aim of the present study was to determine the optimal intensity and interval of repeated 100 Hz TENS for the treatment of chronic inflammatory hyperalgesia in a monoarthritic pain model of the rat, and to assess the changes of the spinal substance P (SP) release in response to TENS ...
متن کاملExcitatory amino acids and intracellular pH in motoneurons of the isolated frog spinal cord.
Double-barrelled pH-sensitive micro-electrodes were used to measure changes of intracellular and extracellular pH in and around motoneurons of the isolated frog spinal cord during application of excitatory amino acids. It was found that N-methyl-D-aspartate, quisqualate and kainate produced a concentration-dependent intracellular acidification. Extracellularly, triphasic pH changes (acid-alkali...
