Background: It is known that nerve signals arising from sites of inflammation lead to persistent changes in the spinal cord and contribute to the amplification and persistence of pain. Nevertheless, the underlying mechanisms have not yet been completely elucidated. We identified differentially expressed genes in the lumbar (L4-L6) segment of the spinal cord from complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) rats compared to control animals via high throughput sequencing. Based on differential gene expression analysis, we selected interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) for follow-up experiments to explore its antinociceptive potential.
Methods: An animal model of inflammatory pain was induced by intraplantar injection of CFA. We evaluated the effects of adeno-associated viral (AAV)-mediated overexpression of IRF7 in the spinal cord on pain-related behavior after CFA injection. Moreover, the activation of the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and the expression of inflammatory cytokines were investigated to understand the underlying mechanisms related to the contribution of IRF7 to inflammatory pain.
Results: CFA intraplantar injection caused a significant decrease in the level of spinal IRF7, which is mainly expressed in the dorsal horn neurons and astrocytes. Moreover, IRF7 overexpression significantly attenuated pain-related behaviors, as well as the activity of NF-κB/p65 and the production of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in the spinal cord of CFA rats.
Conclusions: Our data indicated that spinal IRF7 plays an important role in the regulation of inflammatory pain. Thus, IRF7 overexpression at the spinal cord level might represent a potential target for the treatment of inflammatory pain.
