Metastatic bone cancer causes severe pain that is primarily treated with opioids. A model of bone cancer pain in which the progression of cancer pain and bone destruction is tightly controlled was used to evaluate the effects of sustained morphine treatment. In cancer-treated mice, morphine
Background: Musculoskeletal sarcomas (MSSs) are rare cancers and often aggressive tumors that originate from mesenchymal tissue. Patients with advanced MSS often report difficulties with symptom burden, which can reduce their health-related quality-of-life. Objective: The aim of this
The effect of morphine on tumor growth of EL-4 leukemia in C57BL/6 mice and of Sarcoma 180 carcinoma in ddY mice was studied. Local subcutaneous tumor growth was enhanced by morphine (10 mg/kg, s.c.) given daily for 10d. This effect was inhibited by preadministration of the opioid antagonist
Noncoding polymorphisms of the GTP cyclohydrolase gene (GCH1) reduce the risk for chronic pain in humans suggesting GCH1 inhibitors as analgesics. We assessed the effects of the GCH1 inhibitor diaminohydroxypyrimidine (DAHP) on nociception and inflammation in a mouse melanoma and a sarcoma cancer
BACKGROUND
Bone cancer pain has a major impact on the quality of life of cancer patients but is difficult to treat. Therefore, development of a novel strategy for bone cancer pain is needed for improvement of the patient quality of life. In this study, we examined the analgesic effects of the
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) are ubiquitous enzymes involved in extracellular matrix remodeling, and as a consequence in a number of physiological and pathological states, including development, wound healing and cancer. A crucial feature of cancer progression and metastasis is the disruption of
A 23-year-old female presented to our palliative care center with Ewing's sarcoma of the humerus with lung metastases. Pain in her arm was unrelieved by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, neuropathic medication as well as morphine. She could not tolerate any further increase in opioid dose but
Schinus terebinthifolia Raddi leaves have been used in folk medicine due to several properties, including antitumor and analgesic effects. The variable efficacy and adverse effects of analgesic drugs have motivated the search for novel antinociceptive agents. It has been reported that Bone cancer pain has been reported to have unique mechanisms and is resistant to morphine treatment. Recent studies have indicated that neuron-restrictive silencer factor (NRSF) plays a crucial role in modulating the expression of the μ-opioid receptor (MOR) gene. The present study elucidates the
OBJECTIVE
Bone metastasis is one of the major causes of cancer-related pain, and not all bone cancer pain can be effectively treated. Recently, a mouse model of bone cancer pain was introduced. To test the analgesic effects of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs on bone cancer pain, the authors
OBJECTIVE
Not all bone cancer pain can be effectively treated with current therapies. In the present study, the effects of ip administration of alpha-2 agonists (dexmedetomidine and clonidine), N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists (MK-801 and ketamine), an N-acetylaspartylglutamate peptidase
Bone is a common metastatic site for prostate and breast cancer, and bone cancer is usually associated with severe pain. Traditional treatments for cancer pain can sometimes be ineffective or associated with side effects. Thus an increasing number of patients seek alternative therapies. In this
We report three successful cases of treating intractable abdominal fullness associated with cancer by continuous thoracic epidural analgesia. Case 1 was a 31-year-old woman with sarcoma of the uterus suffering from back and epigastric pain; abdominal fullness was treated by continuous epidural
Analgesic agents were administered perioperatively to an eight-year-old Springer Spaniel undergoing amputation of its right thoracic limb. The amputation was carried out due to a painful, infiltrative and poorly differentiated sarcoma involving the nerves of the brachial plexus. A combination of
To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of escalating doses of interferon-alpha-2b (IFN, Intron A) with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and cisplatin (DDP) in patients with advanced cancer, 15 patients were accrued between May 1990 and July 1991. Primary sites were unknown (3), colorectal (3), head and
