Effects of ketamine on spinal nerve ligation-induced neuropathic pain
摘要
Abstract
Objective To investigate whether ketamine can prevent microglia activation and thus exert its analgesic effect in neuropathic pain conditions. Methods Based on the spinal nerve ligation (SNL) neuropathic pain model, we first investigated the anti-nociceptive effects of intrathecal (i.t.) ketamine on basal pain threshold and SNL-induced neuropathic pain by behavioral study with von Frey filaments. Then we detected the related microglia activation levels after ketamine administration on SNL or normal rats by immunohistochemistry. Results Behavioral study indicated that ketamine i.t. attenuated SNL-induced mechanical allodynia without affecting the basal paw withdrawal threshold. Immunohistochemistry indicated that ketamine i.t. relieved SNL-induced marked microglia activation in the ipsilateral spinal dorsal horn. Together with the semi-quantification of the immunoreactive density, it was shown that ketamine i.t. inhibited SNL-induced microglia activation by attenuating the up-regulation of OX-42. Conclusion Suppressing nerve injury-induced microglia activation could be a novel mechanism of the anti-allodynia effect of ketamine on neuropathic pain.关键词
