Article Abstract
Eight P2YR antagonists, including three newly synthesized analogues, containing a naphthalene or phenyl-triazolyl scaffold were compared in a mouse model of chronic neuropathic pain (sciatic constriction). P2YR antagonists rapidly (≤30 min) reversed mechano-allodynia, with maximal effects typically within 1 h after injection. Two analogues (4-[4-(4-piperidinyl)phenyl]-7-[4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-naphthalenecarboxylic acid and -acetyl analogue , 10 μmol/kg, i.p.) achieved complete pain reversal (100%) at 1 to 2 h, with relief evident up to 5 h for (41%). A reversed triazole analogue reached 87% maximal protection. Receptor affinity was determined using a fluorescent antagonist binding assay, indicating similar mouse and human P2YR affinity. The mP2YR affinity was only partially predictive of efficacy, suggesting the influence of pharmacokinetic factors. Thus P2YR is a potential therapeutic target for treating chronic pain.

Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is one of the most common spinal disorders in elderly people and is often accompanied by neuropathic pain. Although our previous studies have demonstrated that infiltrating macrophage contribute to chronic neuropathic pain in LSS rat model, the molecular mechanisms underlying macrophage activation and infiltration have not been fully elucidated. In this study, we examined the critical role of platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) signaling pathway in neuropathic pain associated with macrophage infiltration and activation in LSS rats.

Central post-stroke pain (CPSP) is an intractable neuropathic pain syndrome. Dual-target deep brain stimulation (DBS), which integrates sensory thalamic modulation and endogenous analgesic pathways, has emerged as a potential intervention; however, clinical evidence remains scarce. We report a 54-year-old woman who developed right-sided limb paresthesia progressing to persistent right hemibody pain following a left thalamic hemorrhage.

Introduction: Migraine headache not only is associated with high levels of suffering but also represents a considerable socioeconomic challenge. It is linked to various psychological and physiological impairments, including sensorimotor and somatosensory dysfunction, like those observed in other persistent pain syndromes. This study aims to determine whether individuals with high-frequency episodic (HFEM) or chronic migraine (CM) exhibit differences in somatosensory perception compared to healthy individuals and to explore potential correlations with neuropsychological features.

Background: Fibromyalgia (FM) is a complex chronic pain disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain and symptoms suggesting autonomic dysfunction. Small fiber neuropathy (SFN) has been described in a subgroup of patients. We aimed to explore the value of structured symptom assessment to identify patients with SFN or autonomic neuropathy.

Background: Chronic pain and cancer interact bidirectionally, with pain enhancing sensory peptides and potentially promoting tumor growth. Despite this, most chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain (CIPN) studies overlook the contribution of cancer itself to neuropathy, focusing instead on chemotherapy-induced mechanisms. Animal models of chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain (CINP) have been developed by injecting chemotherapeutic drugs such as paclitaxel into normal animals without cancer.
