Han X, Pinto LG, Vilar B, McNaughton PA. Opioid-Induced Hyperalgesia and Tolerance Are Driven by HCN Ion Channels. J Neurosci 2024; 44:e1368232023. [PMID: 38124021 PMCID: PMC11059424 DOI: 10.1523/jneurosci.1368-23.2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/19/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Prolonged exposure to opioids causes an enhanced sensitivity to painful stimuli (opioid-induced hyperalgesia, OIH) and a need for increased opioid doses to maintain analgesia (opioid-induced tolerance, OIT), but the mechanisms underlying both processes remain obscure. We found that pharmacological block or genetic deletion of HCN2 ion channels in primary nociceptive neurons of male mice completely abolished OIH but had no effect on OIT. Conversely, pharmacological inhibition of central HCN channels alleviated OIT but had no effect on OIH. Expression of C-FOS, a marker of neuronal activity, was increased in second-order neurons of the dorsal spinal cord by induction of OIH, and the increase was prevented by peripheral block or genetic deletion of HCN2, but block of OIT by spinal block of HCN channels had no impact on C-FOS expression in dorsal horn neurons. Collectively, these observations show that OIH is driven by HCN2 ion channels in peripheral nociceptors, while OIT is driven by a member of the HCN family located in the CNS. Induction of OIH increased cAMP in nociceptive neurons, and a consequent shift in the activation curve of HCN2 caused an increase in nociceptor firing. The shift in HCN2 was caused by expression of a constitutively active μ-opioid receptor (MOR) and was reversed by MOR antagonists. We identified the opioid-induced MOR as a six-transmembrane splice variant, and we show that it increases cAMP by coupling constitutively to Gs HCN2 ion channels therefore drive OIH, and likely OIT, and may be a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of addiction.

Koponen ME, Forget P. Pharmacological Interventions for Opioid-Induced Hyperalgesia: A Scoping Review of Preclinical Trials. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11237060. [PMID: 36498635 PMCID: PMC9735807 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11237060] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2022] [Revised: 11/18/2022] [Accepted: 11/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Opioid analgesics are the most effective pharmacological agents for moderate and severe pain. However, opioid use has several limitations such as opioid-induced hyperalgesia (OIH), which refers to the increased pain sensitivity that occurs once analgesia wears off after opioid administration. Several pharmacological interventions have been suggested for OIH, but the current literature does not provide guidelines on which interventions are the most effective and whether they differ depending on the opioid that induces hyperalgesia. This scoping review aimed to identify and describe all the preclinical trials investigating pharmacological interventions for OIH caused by remifentanil, fentanyl, or morphine as the first step towards evaluating whether the most effective OIH interventions are different for different opioids. METHODS Electronic database searches were carried out in Embase, PubMed, and Web of Science. Detailed data extraction was conducted on the eligible trials. RESULTS 72 trials were eligible for the review. Of these, 27 trials investigated remifentanil, 14 trials investigated fentanyl, and 31 trials investigated morphine. A total of 82 interventions were identified. The most studied interventions were ketamine (eight trials) and gabapentin (four trials). The majority of the interventions were studied in only one trial. The most common mechanism suggested for the interventions was inhibition of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors. CONCLUSION This scoping review identified plenty of preclinical trials investigating pharmacological interventions for OIH. Using the current literature, it is not possible to directly compare the effectiveness of the interventions. Hence, to identify the most effective interventions for each opioid, the interventions must be indirectly compared in a meta-analysis.

Abstract
The purpose of this review is to underline the protein kinases that have been established, either in fundamental approach or clinical trials, as potential biological targets in pain management. Protein kinases are presented according to their group in the human kinome: TK (Trk, RET, EGFR, JAK, VEGFR, SFK, BCR-Abl), CMGC (p38 MAPK, MEK, ERK, JNK, ASK1, CDK, CLK2, DYRK1A, GSK3, CK2), AGC (PKA, PKB, PKC, PKMζ, PKG, ROCK), CAMK, CK1 and atypical/other protein kinases (IKK, mTOR). Examples of small molecule inhibitors of these biological targets, demonstrating an analgesic effect, are described. Altogether, this review demonstrates the fundamental role that protein kinase inhibitors could play in the development of new pain treatments.

[PMID: 32547170 PMCID: PMC7245459 DOI: 10.2147/jpr.s250663] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2020] [Accepted: 04/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose The upregulation of spinal NMDA receptor is a crucial mechanism in remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia (RIH). Wnt3a/β-catenin pathway plays an important role in neuropathic pain. We hypothesized that wnt3a inhibitor (iwp-2) could downregulate the expression of NR2B subunit in NMDA receptor, in order to relieve RIH. Materials and Methods The study has 2 phases. The phase 1 study is designed by different doses of iwp-2 groups to create an appropriate iwp-2 dose used in RIH alleviation. The phase 2 study is designed to prove that the wnt3a inhibitor could downregulate the activation of the NR2B to inhibit RIH in rats. Thermal hyperalgesia (PWTL) and mechanical allodynia (PWMT) were evaluated after RIH. The area under the PWTL and PWMT curves (AUC) were calculated. The amount of activated NR2B subunit, c-fos, NF-κB, β-catenin, wnt3a and p-GSK-3β (Ser9) were detected in the lumbar spinal cord. Results Remifentanil infusion could induce overexpression of β-catenin and wnt3a in rats. Iwp-2 (60μM, 120μM, 180μM) could dose-dependently inhibit thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia in rats. In phase 2 study, both NR2B subunit antagonist Ro25-6981 and iwp-2 decreased the amount of activated NR2B, enhanced p-GSK-3β (Ser9), reduced β-catenin, c-fos and NF-κB in the lumbar spinal cord (p < 0.001). In comparison with the group iwp-2, the group of Ro25-6981 had more benefit in reversing hyperalgesia, including higher AUC value of PWTL (p = 0.022) and PWMT (p = 0.035). Conclusion Remifentanil exposure could induce overexpression of wnt3a and enhance the production of β-catenin in the spinal dorsal horn. Inhibition of wnt3a response was capable of attenuating RIH in alleviating hyperalgesia-related behavioral parameters, as well as reducing overexpression of c-fos, NF-κB, NR2B in spinal dorsal horn.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical relevance of the suggested hyperalgesic effects of remifentanil is still unclear, especially in the long term. OBJECTIVE The current study evaluated the impact of remifentanil on thermal thresholds 3 days and 12 months after surgery, measured with Quantitative Sensory Testing. DESIGN A single-blind, randomised controlled trial. SETTING A tertiary care teaching hospital in The Netherlands, from 2014 to 2016. PATIENTS A total of 126 patients aged between 18 and 85 years, undergoing cardiothoracic surgery via sternotomy (coronary artery bypass grafts and/or valve replacement) were included. Exclusion criteria were BMI above 35 kg m, history of cardiac surgery, chronic pain conditions, neurological conditions, allergy to opioids or paracetamol, language barrier and pregnancy. INTERVENTIONS Patients were allocated randomly to receive intra-operatively either a continuous remifentanil infusion or intermittent intra-operative fentanyl as needed in addition to standardised anaesthesia with propofol and intermittent intravenous fentanyl at predetermined time points. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Warm and cold detection and pain thresholds 3 days and 12 months after surgery. In addition the use of remifentanil, presence of postoperative chronic pain, age, opioid consumption and pre-operative quality of life were tested as a predictor for altered pain sensitivity 12 months after surgery. RESULTS Both warm and cold detection, and pain thresholds, were not significantly different between the remifentanil and fentanyl groups 3 days and 12 months after surgery (P > 0.05). No significant predictors for altered pain sensitivity were identified. CONCLUSION Earlier reports of increased pain sensitivity 1 year after the use of remifentanil could not be confirmed in this randomised study using Quantitative Sensory Testing. This indicates that remifentanil plays a minor role in the development of chronic thoracic pain. Still, the relatively high incidence of chronic thoracic pain and its accompanying impact on quality of life remain challenging problems. TRIAL REGISTRATION The study was registered at EudraCT (ref: 2013-000201-23) and ClinicalTrials.gov (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02031016).

Abstract
Background Remifentanil is widely used in general anesthesia due to its reliability and rapid onset. However, remifentanil-induced postoperative hyperalgesia might be a challenge nowadays. Accumulating evidence suggests that the transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) was involved in the development of neuropathic pain and hyperalgesia. However, the contribution of TRPV1 in modulating remifentanil-induced postoperative hyperalgesia is still unknown. The aim of this study is the contribution of TRPV1 to the surface expression of N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors in remifentanil-induced postoperative hyperalgesia. Methods The hot plate test and the Von Frey test were performed to evaluate thermal and mechanical hyperalgesia. Capsazepine (CPZ) was administrated intrathecally to confirm our results. TRPV1, NMDA receptors, CaMKII (calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase II), and protein kinase C (PKC) in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) were detected by Western blotting. Immunofluorescence assay was applied to analyze the distribution of TRPV1 and the relationship between TRPV1 and NMDA receptor subunit 1 (NR1). Results Remifentanil-induced both thermal and mechanical postoperative hyperalgesia. Here, we found the membrane trafficking of NR1, possibly due to the activation of TRPV1 in DRG neurons after remifentanil infusion. Furthermore, intrathecal injection of CPZ was able to relieve remifentanil-induced postoperative hyperalgesia according to a behavioral test and CPZ confirmed that TRPV1 is involved in NR1 trafficking. In addition, CaMKII/PKC but not protein kinase A (PKA) contributed to remifentanil-induced postoperative hyperalgesia. Conclusion Our study demonstrates that TRPV1 receptors are involved in remifentanil-induced postoperative hyperalgesia. TRPV1 contributes to the persistence of remifentanil-induced postoperative hyperalgesia through the trafficking of NMDA receptors via the activation of CaMKII-PKC signaling pathways in DRG neurons.

Abstract
The interaction of remifentanil with glutamate systems has an important role in remifentanil-induced thermal and mechanical hyperalgesia. A previous study by our group suggested that the trafficking and function of glutamate receptor 1 (GluR1) subunits contributes to remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia by regulating the phosphorylation of GluR1 in dorsal horn neurons. The present study demonstrated that δ opioid receptor (DOR) inhibition prevented thermal and mechanical hyperalgesia, which was induced by remifentanil infusion via attenuating GluR1 subunit trafficking and α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor (AMPAR) function in dorsal horn neurons. Sprague Dawley rats received a plantar incision and remifentanil infusion to induce a model of postoperative hyperalgesia. Thermal and mechanical pain was tested at 8 different time-points. Expression of AMPAR subunits GluR1 and DOR, as well as the phosphorylation status of GluR1 were evaluated by western blot analysis. Furthermore, the function of AMPAR in the spinal dorsal horn was measured by whole-cell patch-clamp recording. Remifentanil-induced thermal and mechanical hyperalgesia appeared after the 60-min infusions, reaching a peak level on day 2 and persisting for 5 days. Remifentanil infusion led to upregulation of membrane expression of the AMPAR subunit GluR1 and DOR (P=0.003 and 0.001, respectively) no change in total GluR1 and DOR expression levels (P=0.244 and 0.531, respectively). Selective DOR inhibitor naltrindole caused a reduction of remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia, which was accompanied by downregulation of membrane levels of GluR1 in the spinal cord (P=0.0013). In addition, DOR inhibition led to downregulation of GluR1 phosphorylated at Ser845. Furthermore, the AMPAR-mediated miniature excitatory post-synaptic current was increased in frequency and in amplitude in dorsal horn neurons (P=0.002 and 0.0011, respectively), which was decreased by incubation with naltrindole. Combined behavioral, western blot and electrophysiological evidence indicated that remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia was mediated by DOR activation, followed by phosphorylation-dependent GluR1 trafficking and AMPAR function enhancement in the spinal cord. DOR appears to be required for remifentanil and incision-induced hyperalgesia development and to be a potential biochemical target for treating opioid-induced postoperative hyperalgesia.

Abstract
The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) receives dense noradrenergic projections from the locus coeruleus. Adrenergic innervation of mPFC pyramidal neurons plays an essential role in both physiology (control of memory formation, attention, working memory, and cognitive behavior) and pathophysiology (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, cognitive deterioration after traumatic brain injury, behavioral changes related to addiction, Alzheimer’s disease and depression). The aim of this study was to elucidate the mechanism responsible for adrenergic receptor-mediated control of the resting membrane potential in layer V mPFC pyramidal neurons. The membrane potential or holding current of synaptically isolated layer V mPFC pyramidal neurons was recorded in perforated-patch and classical whole-cell configurations in slices from young rats. Application of noradrenaline (NA), a neurotransmitter with affinity for all types of adrenergic receptors, evoked depolarization or inward current in the tested neurons irrespective of whether the recordings were performed in the perforated-patch or classical whole-cell configuration. The effect of noradrenaline depended on β1- and not α1- or α2-adrenergic receptor stimulation. Activation of β1-adrenergic receptors led to an increase in inward Na+ current through hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) channels, which carry a mixed Na+/K+ current. The protein kinase A- and C-, glycogen synthase kinase-3β- and tyrosine kinase-linked signaling pathways were not involved in the signal transduction between β1-adrenergic receptors and HCN channels. The transduction system operated in a membrane-delimited fashion and involved the βγ subunit of G-protein. Thus, noradrenaline controls the resting membrane potential and holding current in mPFC pyramidal neurons through β1-adrenergic receptors, which in turn activate HCN channels via a signaling pathway involving the βγ subunit.

Abstract
Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is the phenomenon that harnesses the body's endogenous protective mechanisms against prolonged ischemia-reperfusion-induced injury. The present study aimed to explore the involvement of glycogen synthase kinase-3β and gap junction signaling in TRPV1 and remote hind preconditioning-induced cardioprotection. In the present study, four consecutive cycles (5min of ischemia-reperfusion) of remote hind limb preconditioning stimulus were delivered using a blood pressure cuff fastened at the inguinal level of the rat. The isolated rat hearts were mounted on the Langendorff's apparatus and were exposed to 30min of global ischemia-120min of reperfusion. Sustained ischemia-reperfusion led to cardiac injury that was assessed in terms of infarct size, LDH release, CK release, LVDP, +dp/dtmax, -dp/dtmin, heart rate and coronary flow rate. The pharmacological agents employed in the present study included capsaicin (10mg/kg) as TRPV1 channel activator, AR-A014418 (1 and 3mg/kg) as glycogen synthase kinase-3β inhibitor and carbenoxolone disodium (50 and 100mg/kg) as gap junction blocker. Remote hind limb, capsaicin and AR-A014418 preconditioning led to significant reduction in the infarct size, LDH release, CK release and improved LVDP, +dp/dtmax, -dp/dtmin, heart rate and coronary flow rate. However, remote hind limb, capsaicin and AR-A014418 preconditioning-induced cardioprotective effects were remarkably reduced in the presence of carbenoxolone (100mg/kg). This indicates that remote preconditioning stimulus probably activates TRPV1 channels that may inhibit glycogen synthase kinase-3β activity which subsequently enhances gap junction coupling to produce cardioprotective effects.

Abstract
Remifentanil-induced secondary hyperalgesia has been demonstrated in both animal experiments and clinical trials. Enhancement of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor trafficking as well as protein kinase C (PKC) and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) have been reported to be involved in the induction and maintenance of central sensitization. In the current study, it was demonstrated that dexmedetomidine could prevent remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia (RIH) via regulating spinal NMDAR-PKC-Ca2+/ CaMKII pathway in vivo and in vitro. We firstly investigated the effect of dexmedetomidine, a highly selective α2-adrenergic receptor agonist, on mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia using a rat model of RIH. NMDA receptor subunits (NR1, NR2A and NR2B) expression and membrane trafficking as well as PKC and CaMKII expression in spinal cord L4-L5 segments were measured by Western blot analysis. The expression of NMDA receptor subunits (NR1, NR2A and NR2B) were also detected by immunohistochemistry. Further more, the effect of dexmedetomidine on NMDA receptor current amplitude and frequency in spinal cord slices were investigated by whole-cell patch-clamp recording. We found that remifentail infusion at 1.2 μg.kg-1.min-1 for 90 min caused mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia, up-regulated NMDA receptor subunits NR1 and NR2B expression in both membrane fraction and total lysate as well as increased PKC and CaMKII expression in spinal cord dorsal horn. Subcutaneously injection of dexmedetomidine at the dose of 50 μg/kg at 30 min before plantar incision significantly attenuated remifentanil-induced mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia from 2 h to 48 h after infusion, and this was associated with reversal of up-regulated NR1 and NR2B subunits in both membrane fraction and total lysate as well as increased PKC and CaMKII expression in spinal cord dorsal horn. Furthermore, remifentanil incubation increased amplitude and frequency of NMDA receptor-induced current in dorsal horn neurons, which was dose-dependently attenuated by dexmedetomidine. These results suggest that dexmedetomidine can significantly ameliorate RIH via modulating the expression, membrane trafficking and function of NMDA receptors as well as PKC and CaMKII level in spinal dorsal horn, which present useful insights into the mechanistic action of dexmedetomidine as a potential anti-hyperalgesic agents for treating RIH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Remifentanil may induce hyperalgesia. Recent studies implicate a close relationship between post-surgical hyperalgesia and phosphorylation and activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) in the spinal microglia. This study aimed to investigate whether the combination of post-surgical and remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia worsens post-operative pain and whether phosphorylated p38MAPK (phospho-p38MAPK) in the spinal dorsal horn in rats is involved in remifentanil-induced postoperative hyperalgesia. METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into six groups: control, incision only, remifentanil only, remifentanil + incision, remifentanil + incision + SB203580, and remifentanil + incision + DMSO. The p38MAPK inhibitor SB203580 and DMSO were injected intrathecally. A right plantar surgical incision was performed in the incision groups, and remifentanil was infused for 60 min in the remifentanil groups. Mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) and thermal paw withdrawal latency (PWL) of the bilateral hind paws were measured and the number of phospho-p38MAPK-positive cells in rat spinal dorsal horn sections was counted. RESULTS Intravenous remifentanil infusion decreased bilateral plantar PWL values from 1 h to 3 days after surgery, however there was no additive effect with incision-induced values. There was a significant increase in the number of dorsal horn phospho-p38MAPK-positive cells in the remifentanil + incision group compared to the incision group, but no increase in the number of these cells when remifentanil was given alone. Intrathecal pretreatment with SB203580 attenuated remifentanil + incision-induced postoperative hyperalgesia and significantly reduced activation of phospho-p38MAPK in spinal dorsal horn. CONCLUSIONS Incision-induced and remifentanil-induced increases in hyperalgesia were not additive when incision and remifentanil were used together. Data on phospho-38MAPK activation in remifenanil-induced hyperalgesia were contradictory and need further clarification.

Abstract
Background Activation of NMDA receptors play an important role in the development of remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia. We hypothesized that in addition to ketamine, intrathecal MgSO4 could also relieve thermal and mechanical hyperalgesia in rats. Methods Initially, 24 Sprague–Dawley rats were divided into control group, remifentanil group, surgical incision group and remifentanil combined with surgical incision group to create an experimental model. Subsequently, 40 rats were divided into control group, model group, model group plus 100 μg MgSO4, 300 μg MgSO4 and 10 μg ketamine respectively. Paw withdrawal mechanical thresholds and paw withdrawal thermal latency tests were performed at −24 h, 2 h, 6 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h and 7 day after the surgical procedure. After behavior assessment on the 7th day, remifentanil was given again to ascertain whether or not NMDA antagonists could suppress the re-exposure of remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia. Results Remifentanil administration plus surgical incision induced significant postoperative hyperalgesia, as indicated by decreased paw withdrawal mechanical thresholds and paw withdrawal thermal latency to mechanical and thermal stimulation. In addition to ketamine, intrathecal MgSO4 (100, 300 μg) dose-dependently reduced remifentanil-induced mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia. Ketamine had less mechanical hyperalgesia in 6 h (p = 0.018), 24 h (p = 0.014) and 48 h (p = 0.011) than 300 μg MgSO4. There was no difference in inhibiting thermal hyperalgesia between the group ketamine and group MgSO4 (300 μg). The rats were given remifentanil again 7 days later after the first exposure of remifentanil. The hyperalgesic effect induced by re-exposure of remifentanil was not reversed in any groups of MgSO4 or ketamine. Conclusions In addition to ketamine, intrathecal administration of MgSO4 dose-dependently reduced remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia in a surgical incision mode. Re-exposure to remifentanil 1 week later again produced hyperalgesia, and this was not altered by the prior intrathecal treatments in any 4 groups treated with MgSO4 or ketamine.

Abstract
Up-regulation of GluN2B-containing N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) expression and trafficking is the key mechanism for remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia (RIH), nevertheless, the signaling pathway and pivotal proteins involved in RIH remain equivocal. PKMζ, an isoform of protein kinase C (PKC), maintains pain memory storage in neuropathic pain and inflammatory pain, which plays a parallel role regulated by NMDARs in long-term memory trace. In the present study, Zeta Inhibitory Peptide (ZIP), a PKMζ inhibitor, and a selective GluN2B antagonist Ro-256981 are injected intrathecally before remifentanil infusion (1 μg kg-1 min-1 for 1 h, iv) in order to detect whether GluN2B contributes to RIH through affecting synthesis and activity of PKMζ in spinal dorsal horn. Nociceptive tests are measured by Paw withdrawal mechanical threshold (PWT) and paw withdrawal thermal latency (PWL). The L4-L6 segments of dorsal horn taken from rats with RIH are for determining expression of PKMζ and pPKMζ by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. Our data suggest that remifentanil infusion causes an increase of PKMζ in expression and phosphorylation in rats with nociceptive sensitization, beginning at 2 h, peaked at 2 days, and returned to basal level at 7 days. ZIP (10 ng) could block behavioral sensitization induced by remifentanil. Ro25-6981 dosage-dependently attenuated mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia and reversed expression of PKMζ and pPKMζ, indicating that GluN2B-containing NMDA receptor facilitates development of RIH through mediating expression and activity of spinal PKMζ in rats. Although detailed mechanisms require further comprehensive study, the preventive role of Ro25-6981 and ZIP provide novel options for the effective precaution of RIH in clinics.

Abstract
The use of lithium is well established in bipolar disorders and the benefits are being demonstrated in neurodegenerative disorders. Recently, our group showed that treatment with microdose lithium stabilized the cognitive deficits observed in Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. In order to verify the lithium microdose potential in preventing the disease development, the aim of this work was to verify the effects of chronic treatment with microdose lithium given before and after the appearance of symptoms in a mouse model of a disease similar to AD. Transgenic mice (Cg-Tg(PDGFB-APPSwInd)20Lms/2J) and their non-transgenic litter mate genetic controls were treated with lithium carbonate (0.25mg/Kg/day in drinking water) for 16 or 8 months starting at two and ten months of age, respectively [corrected]. Similar groups were treated with water. At the end of treatments, both lithium treated transgenic groups and non-transgenic mice showed no memory disruption, different from what was observed in the water treated transgenic group. Transgenic mice treated with lithium since two months of age showed decreased number of senile plaques, no neuronal loss in cortex and hippocampus and increased BDNF density in cortex, when compared to non-treated transgenic mice. It is suitable to conclude that these data support the use of microdose lithium in the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease, once the neurohistopathological characteristics of the disease were modified and the memory of transgenic animals was maintained.

Abstract
Objective. Postoperative hyperalgesia is very frequent and hard to treat. Dezocine is widely used and has a modulatory effect for thermal hyperalgesia in animal models. So, this study was designed to investigate the potential role of dezocine in decreasing postoperative hyperalgesia for patients undergoing open abdominal surgery. Methods. This is a randomized, double-blinded, and placebo-controlled trial. 50 patients for elective open gastrectomy were randomly allocated to either a true treatment group (0.15 mg/kg intravenous dezocine at the end of surgery) or a sham treatment group (equivalent volume of saline) in a 1 : 1 ratio. Patients were followed up for 48 hours postoperatively and pain threshold to Von Frey filaments, pain scores, PCIA consumption, rescue analgesics use, sedation score, and occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting were recorded. Results. Patients in the true treatment group experienced statistically significantly higher pain threshold on forearm and smaller extent of peri-incisional hyperalgesia than the sham treatment group. Rescue analgesic use, cumulative PCIA consumption, and pain scores were statistically significantly decreased in the true treatment group compared to the sham treatment group. Conclusions. Dezocine offers a significant antihyperalgesic and analgesic effect in patients undergoing elective open gastrectomy for up to 48 hours postoperatively.

Abstract
Abstract
Background:
Hyperalgesia is one of the negative consequences following intraoperative analgesia with remifentanil. Peroxynitrite is a critical determinant in nociceptive process. Peroxynitrite inactivates iron-sulfur cluster that results in mitochondrial dysfunction and the release of iron, leading to mitochondrial iron accumulation. Iron accumulation mediated by divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) plays a key role in N-methyl-d-aspartate neurotoxicity. This study aims to determine whether peroxynitrite contributes to remifentanil-induced postoperative hyperalgesia via DMT1-mediated iron accumulation.
Methods:
Behavior testing was performed in rat model at different time points. Three-nitrotyrosine, nitrated manganese superoxide dismutase, and DMT1 with/without iron-responsive element [DMT1(+)IRE and DMT1(-)IRE] in spinal cord were detected by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. Spinal iron concentration was measured using the Perl stain and atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Hydrogen-rich saline imparting selectivity for peroxynitrite decomposition and iron chelator was applied in mechanistic study on the roles of peroxynitrite and iron, as well as the prevention of hyperalgesia.
Results:
Remifentanil induced thermal and mechanical hyperalgesia at postoperative 48 h. Compared with control, there were higher levels of 3-nitrotyrosine (mean ± SD, hyperalgesia vs. control, 1.22 ± 0.18 vs. 0.25 ± 0.05, n = 4), nitrated manganese superoxide dismutase (1.01 ± 0.1 vs. 0.19 ± 0.03, n = 4), DMT1(-)IRE (1.42 ± 0.19 vs. 0.33 ± 0.06, n = 4), and iron concentration (12.87 ± 1.14 vs. 5.26 ± 0.61 μg/g, n = 6) in remifentanil-induced postoperative hyperalgesia, while DMT1(+)IRE was unaffected. Eliminating peroxynitrite with hydrogen-rich saline protected against hyperalgesia and attenuated DMT1(-)IRE overexpression and iron accumulation. Iron chelator prevented hyperalgesia in a dose-dependent manner.
Conclusions:
Our study identifies that spinal peroxynitrite activates DMT1(-)IRE, leading to abnormal iron accumulation in remifentanil-induced postoperative hyperalgesia, while providing the rationale for the development of molecular hydrogen and “iron-targeted” therapies.

Abstract
This paper is the thirty-sixth consecutive installment of the annual review of research concerning the endogenous opioid system. It summarizes papers published during 2013 that studied the behavioral effects of molecular, pharmacological and genetic manipulation of opioid peptides, opioid receptors, opioid agonists and opioid antagonists. The particular topics that continue to be covered include the molecular-biochemical effects and neurochemical localization studies of endogenous opioids and their receptors related to behavior, and the roles of these opioid peptides and receptors in pain and analgesia; stress and social status; tolerance and dependence; learning and memory; eating and drinking; alcohol and drugs of abuse; sexual activity and hormones, pregnancy, development and endocrinology; mental illness and mood; seizures and neurologic disorders; electrical-related activity and neurophysiology; general activity and locomotion; gastrointestinal, renal and hepatic functions; cardiovascular responses; respiration and thermoregulation; and immunological responses.

Brain Res Bull 2014; 106:47-55. [PMID: 24951883 DOI: 10.1016/j.brainresbull.2014.05.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2014] [Revised: 05/20/2014] [Accepted: 05/21/2014] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although NMDAR trafficking mediated by GSK-3β involvement in transmission of pronociceptive messages in the spinal cord has been confirmed by our previous studies, whether NMDAR trafficking is implicated in peripheral sensitization remains equivocal. It is demonstrated that inflammation is associated with spinal NMDAR-containing nociceptive neurons activation and the maintenance of opioid induced pain hypersensitivity. However, whether and how hydrogen-rich saline, as an effective anti-inflammatory drug, could prevent hyperalgesia through affecting peripheral sensitization caused by NMDAR activation remains to be explored. METHODS To test these effects, hydrogen-rich saline (2.5, 5 or 10 ml/kg) was administrated intraperitoneally after remifentanil infusion, NMDAR antagonist MK-801 or GSK-3β inhibitor TDZD-8 was administrated intravenously before remifentanil infusion in rats. We examined time course of hydrogen concentration in blood after hydrogen-rich saline administration. Mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia were evaluated by measuring PWT and PWL for 48 post-infusion hours, respectively. Western blotting and real-time qPCR assay were applied to analyze the NR1 membrane trafficking, GSK-3β expression and activity in DRG. Inflammatory mediators (TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6) expressions in DRG were also analyzed. RESULTS We found that NR1 membrane trafficking in DRG increased, possibly due to GSK-3β activation after remifentanil infusion. We also discovered that hydrogen-rich saline not 2.5 ml/kg but 5 and 10 ml/kg could dose-dependently attenuate mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia without affecting baseline nociceptive threshold, reduce expressions of inflammatory mediators (TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6) and decrease NR1 trafficking mediated by GSK-3β, and minimal effective concentration was observed to be higher than 10 μmol/L, namely peak concentration in arterial blood after administration of HRS 2.5 ml/kg without any influence on hyperalgesia. CONCLUSION Our results indicated that antihyperalgesic effect of hydrogen-rich saline might depend predominantly on its ability to reverse NR1 trafficking via inhibition of GSK-3β activity in DRG in a dose-dependent manner.
