Epidemiologic and animal studies revealed that capsaicin (8-methyl-N-vanillyl-6-noneamide) can act as a carcinogen or cocarcinogen. However, the influence of consumption of capsaicin-containing foods or vegetables on skin cancer patients remains largely unknown. In the present study, we demonstrated
Capsaicin-sensitive afferent nerves are described as being protective against gastric inflammation; their destruction leads to an exacerbation of inflammatory processes. However, these nerves have been shown to exert a pro-inflammatory action on stress-induced gastritis in rats. Our study aimed to
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of the neuropeptide depleting agent capsaicin on neuropeptides in both synovial and nonsynovial articular tissues and on the relative degree of joint inflammation in established antigen induced arthritis (AIA).
METHODS
AIA was created in both knees in 3 cats. Once
Neurogenic inflammation frequently causes acute plasma leakage in airways and life-threatening pulmonary edema. However, limited strategies are available to alleviate neurogenic inflammation. Proopiomelanocortin (POMC) is the precursor of anti-inflammatory melanocortins, which have been proposed of
The effects of ruthenium red, an inorganic dye with known capsaicin antagonist properties, was investigated in the rabbit eye. At a dose of 0.24 nmol ruthenium red inhibited the inflammatory effects of capsaicin (1 or 8 nmol). Unexpectedly, when the dye was injected in doses ranging from 0.24 to 7.4
Transdermal application of analgesics allows efficient and painless delivery of medication with minimum side effect. This study was designed with the aim to formulate and characterize dexibuprofen-capsaicin emulgel for transdermal drug delivery with improved anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.
Previous studies have investigated the short-term effect of capsaicin on edema formation and goblet-cell secretion in the trachea. The present study sought to investigate the long-term effect of a high dose of capsaicin (90 micro g/ml/kg), administered intravenously, on changes in the formation of
We investigated whether neural pathways are involved in mediating ozone (O3)-induced airway inflammation. To determine this, we studied the contribution of adrenergic and cholinergic pathways to the O3-induced increase in airway vascular permeability, an indicator of airway inflammation, by
Increasing doses of capsaicin were applied topically to the forearm skin of 30 patients with psoriasis, 16 patients with systemic scleroderma and 16 healthy volunteers. Only one-third of the patients with psoriasis responded with neurogenic inflammation to capsaicin doses of 0.125 and 0.25
BACKGROUND
ellular damage initiated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) is the main cause of numerous severe diseases and therefore for this reason, the natural antioxidants have note worthy significance in human health. Capsaicin possesses noteworthy analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. It also
OBJECTIVE
Activation of the cannabinoid 1 (CB1) receptor in cultured primary sensory neurons reduces responses mediated through the transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 receptor (TRPV1), which plays a pivotal role in the development of heat hyperalgesia and visceral hyper-reflexia in
Recent experiments have shown that human bronchial epithelial cells (i.e., BEAS-2B) release pro-inflammatory cytokines (i.e., IL-6 and TNFalpha) in a receptor-mediated fashion in response to the neuropeptides, substance P (SP), calcitonin gene-related protein (CGRP), and the prototype botanical
Topical application of capsaicin is thought to deplete substance P from local sensory nerve terminals. In experiments on human skin inflammation was induced by injection of substance P (SP) or histamine intradermally, UV irradiation, non-immunologic contact urticaria, tuberculin reaction, contact
The in vitro pharmacology of inosine (Ino), a putative anti-inflammatory compound, has been investigated in smooth muscle preparations, with emphasis on its possible interaction with known inflammatory mediators, as well as capsaicin, an inducer of "neurogenic inflammation". The highest
Systemic capsaicin and an analogue, olvanil (NE-19550, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl methyl-9Z-octadecenamide), were tested for antinociceptive activity in a model of persistent pain produced by the subcutaneous injection of formalin into the rodent hind paw. Formalin induced a biphasic nociceptive
