Psychometric validation of the Portuguese version of the Neuropathic Pain Symptoms Inventory
(2011)
Backgroud: It has been shown that different symptoms or symptom combinations of neuropathic pain (NeP) may correspond to different mechanistic backgrounds and respond differently to treatment. The Neuropathic Pain Symptom ...

Neuroactive steroids, nociception and neuropathic pain: a flashback to go forward
(Elsevier Science, 2016-04-16)
The present review discusses the potential role of neurosteroids / neuroactive steroids in the regulation of nociceptive and neuropathic pain, and recapitulates the current knowledge on the main mechanisms involved in the ...

Differential regulation of TRP channels in a rat model of neuropathic pain
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2009)
Neuropathic pain is a chronic disease resulting from dysfunction of the nervous system often due to peripheral nerve injury. Hypersensitivity to sensory Stimuli (mechanical, thermal or chemical) is a common source of pain ...
The analgesic effect of crotoxin on neuropathic pain is mediated by central muscarinic receptors and 5-lipoxygenase-derived mediators
(Pergamon-Elsevier B.V. Ltd, 2008-12-01)
Crotoxin (CTX). a neurotoxin isolated from the venom of the South American rattlesnake Crotalus durissus terrificus. induces analgesia. In this study, we evaluated the antinociceptive effect of CTX in a model of neuropathic ...

(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2011)
Motor cortex stimulation (MCS) has been used to treat patients with neuropathic pain resistant to other therapeutic approaches; however, the mechanisms of pain control by MCS are still not clearly understood. We have ...
Crotalphine induces potent antinociception in neuropathic pain by acting at peripheral opioid receptors
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2008)
Neuropathic pain is an important clinical problem and it is usually resistant to the current therapy. We have recently characterized a novel analgesic peptide, crotalphine, from the venom of the South American rattlesnake ...
