大量报告表明外周甘丙肽 (GAL) 在疼痛传递中发挥着重要作用;然而,由于缺乏选择性甘丙肽受体激动剂和拮抗剂,GAL受体(GalR1-3)在疼痛传递中的作用仍不清楚。在本研究中,在外周测试了优先结合 GalR1 的新型激动剂 M617、GalR2 激动剂 (AR-M1896) 和 GalR2 拮抗剂 (M871),以阐明外周 GalR1 和 GalR2 在伤害感受中的作用。同侧(而非对侧)后爪注射 M617 可使辣椒素 (CAP) 诱导的退缩减少约 50%,表明 GalR1 激活可产生抗伤害作用。这种抗伤害作用可以通过足底注射非选择性 GalR 拮抗剂 M35 来阻断。相比之下,足底注射 GalR2 激动剂 AR-M1896 增强了同侧而非对侧的 CAP 诱导的伤害感受(1.7 倍)。 GalR2 拮抗剂 M871 以剂量依赖性方式阻断 AR-M1896 的促伤害作用。该拮抗剂对单独 CAP 诱导的伤害性行为没有影响。数据表明,外周 GalR1 的激活会产生抗伤害感受,但外周 GalR2 的激活会产生促伤害感受。因此,使用这些药理学工具可能有助于阐明 GalR 亚型在伤害感受处理中的作用,确定治疗外周疼痛的潜在药物靶点。 (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc. 保留所有权利。
Numerous reports suggest a significant role of peripheral galanin (GAL) in pain transmission; however, due to the lack of selective galanin receptor agonists and antagonists, the role of GAL receptors (GalR1-3) in pain transmission remains unclear. In this study, a new agonist, M617, that preferentially binds to GalR1, a GalR2 agonist (AR-M1896), and a GalR2 antagonist (M871) were tested in the periphery to elucidate the role of peripheral GalR1 and GalR2 in nociception. Ipsilateral, but not contralateral, hindpaw injection of M617 reduced capsaicin (CAP)-induced flinching by similar to 50%, suggesting that GalR1 activation produces anti-nociception. This anti-nociceptive effect was blocked by intraplantar injection of the non-selective GalR antagonist M35. In contrast ipsilateral, but not contralateral, intraplantar injection of GalR2 agonist AR-M1896 enhanced the CAP-induced nociception (1.7-fold). The GalR2 antagonist M871 blocked the pro-nociceptive effect of AR-M1896 in a dose-dependent manner. This antagonist had no effect on nociceptive behaviors induced by CAP alone. The data demonstrate that activation of peripheral GalR1 results in anti-nociception but activation of peripheral GalR2 produces pro-nociception. Thus, the use of these pharmacological tools may help to elucidate the contribution of GalR subtypes in nociceptive processing, identifying potential drug targets for the treatment of peripheral pain.
