Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Homa Manaheji"
Homa Manaheji's recent research focus centers on understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying pain hypersensitivity and neuropathic pain, particularly in relation to opioid use and inflammatory conditions.
Key findings include the potential of naloxone to mitigate morphine-induced hyperalgesia and the modulatory effects of progesterone on spinal ephrin-B2 expression following nerve injury, suggesting novel therapeutic approaches for pain management.
Additionally, Manaheji's studies highlight the role of neuroinflammatory processes, including the involvement of microglia and various receptors, in mediating pain-related cognitive impairments and neuronal apoptosis.
