Outline of Final Research Achievements |
HMGB1, a nuclear protein, is released into the extracellular space and plays a role as one of damage-associated molecular patterns in pathological conditions. Here we analyzed the role of HMGB1 in chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain and visceral pain. Our data indicate that HMGB1 participates in the development and maintenance of chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain and pancreatitis-related pain.
