Translational medicine: cancer pain mechanisms and management.
Cancer-induced bone pain (CIBP) is a major clinical problem with up to 85% of patients with bony metastases having pain, often associated with anxiety and depression, reduced performance status, and a poor quality of life. Malignant bone disease creates a chronic pain state through sensitization and synaptic plasticity within the spinal cord that amplifies nociceptive signals and their transmis...
متن کاملTranslational Regulatory Mechanisms in Persistent Forms of Synaptic Plasticity
Memory and synaptic plasticity exhibit distinct temporal phases, with long-lasting forms distinguished by their dependence on macromolecular synthesis. Prevailing models for the molecular mechanisms underlying long-lasting synaptic plasticity have largely focused on transcriptional regulation. However, a growing body of evidence now supports a crucial role for neuronal activity-dependent mRNA t...
متن کاملDendritic BC1 RNA in translational control mechanisms
Translational control at the synapse is thought to be a key determinant of neuronal plasticity. How is such control implemented? We report that small untranslated BC1 RNA is a specific effector of translational control both in vitro and in vivo. BC1 RNA, expressed in neurons and germ cells, inhibits a rate-limiting step in the assembly of translation initiation complexes. A translational repres...
متن کاملImmune mechanisms in pain control.
Classically, pain sensation or suppression has been attributed exclusively to neuronal circuits. This review challenges this notion and presents an expanded concept about the contribution of immune mechanisms in the inhibition of pain (analgesia). Among the many transmitters with potential for neuroimmune interactions, we concentrate here on opioids, the most extensively investigated compounds....
متن کاملSpinal mechanisms of pain control.
OBJECTIVES To demonstrate initial results using Khan Kinetic Treatment (KKT) as a chronic neck pain treatment and to present pain control mechanistic theory on which the treatment is based. METHODS A self-reported functional assessment, neck pain questionnaire, and pain medication dose were used as outcome measures for 44 matched patients randomly split into 2 groups ("treatment" and "control...
