Unlabelled: sp. are yeasts that are commercially important due to their production of glycolipid biosurfactants, squalene, itaconic acid, and exopolysaccharide. The search for other analgesia inducing drugs, such as opiates and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), as alternatives is beneficial. In this study, the antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory actions of α-d-mannan were studied using acetic acid-induced writhing, open field test, formalin test, and carrageenan-induced paw oedema tests in mice. The α-d-mannan obtained from sp. was confirmed by methylation analysis, 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analysis, and GC-MS. The results show that α-d-mannan from sp. has analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities.

Repeated injections of isovaline lead to analgesic tolerance and cross-tolerance to salicylate but not to morphine in male mice.

Tolerance to the antinociceptive effects of opioids is a major concern. Studies have shown that chronic use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDs) causes significant tolerance and cross-tolerance to morphine. Chronic NSAIDs use can increase the risk of certain diseases, such as peptic ulcers, and exacerbate others, like heart failure.

Oncostatin M (OSM) plays a crucial role in diverse inflammatory reactions. Although the food bioactive compound naringenin (NAR) exerts various useful effects, including antitussive, anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, renoprotective, antiarthritic, antitumor, antioxidant, neuroprotective, antidepressant, antinociceptive, antiatherosclerotic, and antidiabetic effects, the modulatory mechanism of NAR on OSM expression in neutrophils has not been specifically reported. In the current work, we studied whether NAR modulates OSM release in neutrophil-like differentiated (d)HL-60 cells.

Paclitaxel (PCX) based treatments, commonly used to treat breast, ovarian and lung cancers, have the highest incidence of chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain, affecting from 38 to 94 % of patients. Unfortunately, analgesic treatments are not always effective for PCX-induced neuropathic pain (PINP). This study aimed to evaluate the antinociceptive effect of clavulanic acid (CLAV), a clinically used β-lactam molecule, in both therapeutic and preventive contexts in mice with PINP.

University Hospital of Jena, Institute of Physiology 1, Jena D-07740, Germany. Electronic address:
Musculoskeletal pain has a high prevalence of transition to chronic pain and/or persistence as chronic pain for years or even a lifetime. Possible mechanisms for the development of such pain states are often reflected in inflammatory or neuropathic processes involving, among others, cytokines and other molecules. Since biologics such as blockers of TNF or IL-6 can attenuate inflammation and pain in a subset of patients with rheumatoid arthritis, the question arises to what extent cytokines are involved in the generation of pain in human musculoskeletal diseases.
