Research Abstract |
The neuropeptide nocistatin has inhibitory effects on chronic pain after nerve injury and inflammation. We identified a protein (Nocistatin binding protein, NSP) that interacted with nocistatin from synaptosomal membranes of mouse spinal cord. Nocistatin interacted with the N-terminal truncated form of 29-kDa NSP that was ubiquitously expressed in neural tissues. The inhibition of tactile allodynia by nocistatin seen in wild-type mice was completely lacking in NSP-deficient mice, and the inflammatory pain was prolonged in the deficient mice.
