Activation of either B-1 or B-2 bradykinin receptors by kinins released from damaged tissues contributes to the development and maintenance of inflammatory hyperalgesia. Whereas B-2 agonists activate sensory neurones directly, B-1 agonists were thought only to have indirect actions on sensory neurones. The recent discovery of constitutive B-1 receptor expression in the rat nervous system lead us to re-investigate the role of neuronal B-1 receptors in inflammatory hyperalgesia. Therefore we have examined B-1 bradykinin receptor regulation in rat dorsal root ganglia in a model of inflammatory hyperalgesia, and correlated it with hyperalgesic behaviour. Twenty-four hours after injection of Freund's complete adjuvant into one hindpaw, there was a significant increase in B-1 protein expression (measured by immunohistochemistry) in both ipsilateral and contralateral dorsal root ganglion neurones. whereas axotomy resulted in reduction of B-1 protein in ipsilateral dorsal root ganglia In behavioural experiments, the B-1 artagonist desArg(10)HOE140, administered by either intrathecal or systemic routes. attenuated Freund's complete adjuvant-induced mechanical hyperalgesia in the inflamed paw, but did not affect mechanical allodynia. The B-1 agonist, desArg(9)BK, did not affect paw withdrawal thresholds in naive rats following intraplantar administration into the paw, whilst intrathecal administration elicited mechanical hyperalgesia. However, after Freund's complete adjuvant-induced inflammation, desArg(9)BK caused a marked mechanical hyperalgesia, by either route, of the contralateral, uninflamed hindpaw, correlating with the observed contralateral and ipsilateral increases in receptor levels. Our results suggest a functional role for B-1 receptors expressed both in the periphery and in the spinal cord, in mechanical hyperalgesia during inflammation.
