PTP1B in dorsal root ganglion nociceptors drives neuropathic pain via a presynaptic Src/GluN2B signaling pathway.

BACKGROUND Neuropathic pain, a debilitating chronic condition, remains a major clinical challenge due to its complex pathogenesis and limited treatment options. Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B), a key regulator of tyrosine phosphorylation, has been implicated in various diseases, yet its specific role and mechan...

Targeting pain where it CouNts: the role of neurotensin signaling in pain and analgesia

Chronic pain affects more than one-fifth of adults in the United States and represents a major public health burden due to its impact on quality of life, productivity, and healthcare costs. Current pharmacological treatments remain limited in efficacy and are often associated with significant adverse effects, highlight...

Targeting A3 adenosine receptor signaling to enhance analgesia in nonresponders to spinal cord stimulation in male nerve-injured rats.

ABSTRACT Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a clinically approved therapy for neuropathic pain (NP), yet a substantial subset of patients fails to respond or shows minimal efficacy, so-called nonresponders. It remains unclear how to resolve this SCS nonresponsiveness. Using a NP model induced by tibial-sparing nerve inju...

NaV1.7-dependent peripheral sensitization drives chronic pain in Parkinson’s disease

It is demonstrated that dopaminergic neurodegeneration initiated within the brain is sufficient to drive persistent peripheral sensory neuron dysfunction and identify CRMP2-dependent regulation of NaV1.7 as a therapeutic target for Parkinsonian pain.

Peripheral Nerve Injury Induces an Interferon-Responsive State Centered on Satellite Glial Cells in the DRG That Sustains Neuropathic Pain Through STAT1 and CXCL10 Signaling

Highlights What are the main findings? SNI induces a distinct STAT1-associated IFN SGC population in the DRG, characterized by increased CXCL10 expression. This SGC inflammatory program is associated with sensory-neuron hyperexcitability and pain hypersensitivity. Local STAT1 inhibition or CXCR3 blockade alleviates pai...
