Neuropathic pain resulting from spinal hemisection or selective spinal nerve ligation is characterized by an increase in membrane-bound tumor necrosis factor-alpha (mTNFα) in spinal microglia without detectable release of soluble TNFα (sTNFα). In tissue culture, we showed that a full-length transmembrane cleavage-resistant TNFα (CRTNFα) construct can act through cell–cell contact to activate neighboring...
Neuropathic pain is accompanied by neuroimmune activation in dorsal horn of spinal cord. We have observed that in animal models this activation is characterized by an increased expression of transmembrane tumor necrosis factor α (mTNFα) without the release of soluble tumor necrosis factor α (sTNFα). Herein we report that the pain-related neurotransmitter peptide substance P (SP) increases the expression...
Identification that neuroimmune activation in the spinal cord is an important factor in the development of chronic pain has opened the possibility that gene transfer of anti-inflammatory peptides may be used to reduce pain neurotransmission. We review the published evidence regarding gene transfer to meninges to express the anti-inflammatory peptide interleukin 10, and gene transfer to dorsal root...
