Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We examined the effects of tissue-neural damage with surgical incision on the modification of primary and secondary afferent neurons in the postoperative pain model. The postoperative pain was established by plantar and infra-orbital nerve incision and the withdrawal responses along with sickness behavior were evaluated. Using the rat glabrous in vitro skin-tibial nerve preparation, afferent activities from single mechanosensitive nociceptors were recorded. 1) The microglial activation inhibitor had no effect on dorsal horn BDNF overexpression during the early post-incision period. 2) The impairment and/or modification of D2-like receptors in the spinal cord is not involved in the postoperative decrease in nociceptive threshold. 3) PAR-2-mediated excitation and sensitization of peripheral primary nociceptors was involved in the neuropathic component of postoperative pain. 4) The confidential results of hydrogen water on the postoperative pain status have not been elucidated yet.
