Local injection of nerve growth factor (3 µg/50 µl) or the TRPV1 agonist capsaicin (1 μg/50 μl), but not neurotrophin-3 injection (1 µg/50 µl), resulted in long-lasting facial heat hyperalgesia, which was both significantly reduced by previous neurotrophin-3 local treatment.
The prevention of this hyperalgesia by diclofenac (1-10μg), the inhibitors of COX-1 SC-560 (0.1-1μg) or COX-2 celecoxib (1-5μg), the TRPV1 antagonist capsazepine (0.03-0.3μg) or the TRPA1 antagonist HC030031 (10-50μg) demonstrates the involvement of prostaglandin synthesis and TRP sensitization in CCL5-evoked hyperalgesia.
p38 signaling cascades are involved in tongue heat hyperalgesia in association with TRPV1 upregulation in TG neurons innervating the TNBS-treated tongue.
The effects of the COX-2 inhibitor, parecoxib (intraperitoneal 10 mg kg<sup>-1</sup>), or the EP-1R antagonist, SC51089 (intraperitoneal 100 μg kg<sup>-1</sup>), on hyperalgesia and spinal PGE2 were examined.

Phα1β did not affect calcium responses evoked by selective TRPV1 (capsaicin) or TRPV4 (GSK 1016790A) agonists on the various cell types.Intrathecal (i.t.) and intraplantar (i.pl.) administration of low doses of Phα1β (up to 300 pmol per paw) attenuated acute nociception and mechanical and cold hyperalgesia evoked by AITC (i.t. or i.pl.), without affecting responses produced by capsaicin or hypotonic solution.
The effects of the COX-2 inhibitor, parecoxib (intraperitoneal 10 mg kg<sup>-1</sup>), or the EP-1R antagonist, SC51089 (intraperitoneal 100 μg kg<sup>-1</sup>), on hyperalgesia and spinal PGE2 were examined.
The prevention of this hyperalgesia by diclofenac (1-10μg), the inhibitors of COX-1 SC-560 (0.1-1μg) or COX-2 celecoxib (1-5μg), the TRPV1 antagonist capsazepine (0.03-0.3μg) or the TRPA1 antagonist HC030031 (10-50μg) demonstrates the involvement of prostaglandin synthesis and TRP sensitization in CCL5-evoked hyperalgesia.
Accordingly, targeted knocking down of either Nav1.7-1.9 or Jak2/Stat3 in DRG neurons <i>in vivo</i> alleviated the hyperalgesia in male Sprague Dawley rats.
The prevention of this hyperalgesia by diclofenac (1-10μg), the inhibitors of COX-1 SC-560 (0.1-1μg) or COX-2 celecoxib (1-5μg), the TRPV1 antagonist capsazepine (0.03-0.3μg) or the TRPA1 antagonist HC030031 (10-50μg) demonstrates the involvement of prostaglandin synthesis and TRP sensitization in CCL5-evoked hyperalgesia.

Using the orofacial operant tests, animals show cold allodynia/hyperalgesia in orofacial regions following infraorbital nerve chronic constrictive injury (ION-CCI), which could be alleviated by subcutaneous administration of retigabine, a KCNQ2 activator.
In this study, we investigated the effects of minocycline, a putative suppressor of microglial activation, on systemic lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced spinal cord inflammation, allodynia, and hyperalgesia in neonatal rats.Intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of LPS (2 mg/kg) or sterile saline was performed in postnatal day 5 (P5) rat pups and minocycline (45 mg/kg) or vehicle (phosphate buffer saline; PBS) was administered (i.p.)5 min after LPS injection.
The results may provide an initial prediction on heightened pain sensitivity or hyperalgesia for individuals who are carriers of the ABCB1 polymorphisms.
In a series of parametric studies, we show that this hyperalgesia can be reliably observed using multiple conditioning stimuli (acetic acid and orofacial formalin), test stimuli (hindpaw and forepaw-withdrawal, tail-withdrawal, hot-plate, and von Frey tests) and genotypes (CD-1, DBA/2, and C57BL/6 mice and Sprague-Dawley rats).
Mutant mice with a deletion of Reelin, its lipoprotein receptors, or its intracellular adaptor protein Disabled-1 (Dab1), exhibit nociceptive abnormalities: thermal (heat) hyperalgesia and reduced mechanical sensitivity.
