Cancer pain is a deleterious consequence of tumor growth and related inflammation. Opioids and anti-inflammatory drugs provide first line treatment for cancer pain, but both are limited by side effects. Fufang Kushen injection (FKI) is GMP produced, traditional Chinese medicine used alone or with
In this paper we compare two innovative models of movement-related pain: tumor-induced nociception following implantation of fibrosarcoma cells into bone and muscle inflammation-induced nociception following injection of the irritant carrageenan into muscle. Importantly, using the grip force test,
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 1. We describe here the alterations in the nociceptive sensitivity of Swiss CD1 mice receiving an intraplantar (i.pl.) administration of XC Rous sarcoma-virus-transformed rat fibroblasts (XC cells). 2. Histological studies reveal that XC cells remain at the injection site 2-3 weeks after
Altered expression of circular RNA (circRNA) is recognized as a contributor to malignant pain where microRNA (miRNA) exerts an essential effect. We generated a murine model for bone malignancy pain in which 2472 osteolytic sarcoma cells were injected into the femurs of mice. CircRNA microarray and
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
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
OBJECTIVE
The present study evaluated the carvacrol (CARV) effect on hyperalgesia and nociception induced by sarcoma 180 (S180) in mice.
METHODS
Carvacrol treatment (12.5-50mg/kgs.c.) once daily for 15days was started 24h after injection of the sarcoma cells in the hind paw (s.c.). Mice were
BACKGROUND
Opioid analgesics are generally used to combat the pain associated with cancerous conditions. These agents not only inhibit respiratory function and cause constipation, but also induce other significant side effects such as addiction and tolerance, all of which further contribute to a
BACKGROUND
Astrocytes and metabotropic glutamate receptors play important roles in nociceptive processing. However, their roles in bone cancer pain were not well understood. This study sought to investigate whether selective mGluR3 and mGluR5 agonist or antagonist develop antinociceptive effects on
α-Terpineol (TP) is present in a wide range of essential oils of the genus Eucalyptus, with recognized potential for a range of biological effects, such as analgesic. Hence, our study aimed to investigate the effect of TP on cancer pain induced by sarcoma 180 in Swiss mice. Our results showed that
Bone pain is one of the most common complications in cancer patients with bone metastases, and has the most significant impact on quality of life for patients. Patients with bone cancer pain may be difficult to treat due to the poor understanding of the mechanisms; therefore, the mechanisms of bone
Cancer pain, especially the one caused by metastasis in bones, is a severe type of pain. Pain becomes chronic unless its causes and consequences are resolved. With improvements in cancer detection and survival among patients, pain has been considered as a great challenge because traditional
BACKGROUND
Treating bone cancer pain continues to be a major clinical challenge, and the underlying mechanisms of bone cancer pain remain elusive. Protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) has been reported to be involved in neurogenic inflammation, nociceptive pain and hyperalgesia. Here, we
Cancer pain is a major public health problem worldwide due to the strong impact on the quality of life of patients and side effects of the existing therapeutic options. Monoterpenes, as carvacrol (CARV), have been extensively studied about their therapeutic properties, especially their importance in
