Research Abstract |
The aim of this study was to examine effects and the mechanisms of QX-314 for bone cancer pain. An animal model of bone cancer pain was produced by implantation of osteosarcoma cells into the mouse femur. We examined the effects of QX-314 for bone cancer-induced pain-related behaviors. Systemic administration of QX-314 selectively inhibited ongoing pain-related behavior but not movement-evoked pain-related behaviors in sarcoma-implanted mice. QX-314 inhibited increase in p-CREB expression in TRPV1-positive, but not TRPV1-negative, DRG neurons in sarcoma-implanted mice. Selective ablation of TRPV1-positive afferents inhibited ongoing pain-related behavior but not movement-evoked pain-related behaviors, as did administration of QX-314. Our results indicate that QX-314 selectively inhibits TRPV1-positive afferents, reducing ongoing pain but not movement-evoked pain in bone cancer pain.
