We identified (5R)-6-methyl-5-phenyl-1,3,4,5,6,7-hexahydro-2,5-methano-2,6-benzodiazonine (DS21980956: 4-(R)) as a novel [5.2.1]bicyclic basic compound. The scaffold was inspired by fentanyl or pethidine, which possess potent analgesic activities. DS21980956 had potent analgesic activity in the mouse acetic acid writhing test or tail flick test without agonistic activity at the µ opioid receptor (MOR). The mechanism of analgesic action of DS21980956 was considered to differ from a biased ligand, for example, TRV-130 (3, oliceridine).

Opioids are potent analgesics in clinical pain management but exert variable analgesia in different pain types. Opioid-induced constipation is a common side effect of opioid therapy, and whether opioids induce different gastrointestinal motility inhibitions in different pain types is unknown. In this study, we evaluated the antinociceptive effects and inhibition of upper gastrointestinal transit and colonic bead expulsion of morphine, DAMGO, and Deltorphin in mouse CFA chronic inflammatory pain, SNI chronic neuropathic pain, and carrageenan chronic inflammatory pain models.

Clove oil obtained from Syzygium aromaticum (L.) is traditionally employed to treat inflammation associated with rheumatism, gastric disorders, and as an analgesic. Chemo-herbal combinations are known to have potent anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, while mitigating the drug related side effects.

Background: The role of local infiltration anesthesia (LIA) in knee surgery is significant. LIA can be more potent than a nerve block, but without the downsides. A wide range of agents are used for LIA, including some off-label medications such as dexmedetomidine and ropivacaine.

Wilms tumor 1-associated protein (WTAP) has been validated to be a crucial regulator in the tumorigenesis and advancement of diverse malignancies. This study intended to probe the impacts of WTAP on colorectal cancer (CRC) progression from the perspective of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification. The differential expression patterns of WTAP in clinical CRC samples and cultured cell lines were validated via qRT-PCR and western blot.

Cannabis sativa has been used therapeutically since early civilizations, with key cannabinoids Δ-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) 3.1 and cannabidiol characterized in the 1960s, leading to the discovery of cannabinoid receptors type 1 (CBR) and type 2 (CBR) and the endocannabinoid system (ECS) in the 1990s. The ECS, involving endogenous ligands like 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) 1.
