Our final project involved studies of chemokine receptor cross-talk with neuropeptide and algesic receptors in an effort to identify novel pathways influencing painful and inflammatory reactions. We established that neurons present in dorsal root ganglia (DRG), similar to leukocytes, express a wide variety of receptors for cytokines, chemokines, opioids, anandamide and other neuropeptides. We previously showed that prior exposure to chemokines such as MIP1a results in PKC mediated desensitization of the chemotactic response to opioids by opioid receptors, and thus potentially enhances pain. This decrease in the analgesic effect of opioids was evident from the enhanced tail flick assay of rats administered MIP1a or RANTES prior to an analgesic opioid into the PAG of the CNS. We then extended these earlier studies by showing that prior administration of chemokines Asensitized and primed the calcium flux of capsaicin or anandamide stimulated vanilloid (TRPV1) algesic receptor on DRG neurons. This response also increased pain as shown by the enhancement of paw withdrawal in response to the intrathecal administration of the chemokine prior to capsaicin in vivo. This sensitization of the vanilloid receptor was also PKC dependent. Consequently, proinflammatory chemokines can increase pain both by suppressing opioid and enhancing vanilloid receptor responses. Based on these studies, we predicted that the anti-inflammatory effects of adenosine, which also interacts with GiPCR, might have effects on chemokine receptors. Indeed our current studies show that prior addition of adenosine results in suppressing the in vitro chemotactic response of leukocytes to a variety of chemokines. Furthermore, prior in vivo injection of adenosine inhibits the in vivo influx of leukocytes into a murine air pouch by about 90%. This cross-desensitization of chemokine receptors by adenosine A2a receptors was PKA dependent. These studies therefore reveal novel pathways of receptor mediated intercommunication of painful and inflammatory stimuli. Means of interfering with these PKC and PKA dependent signals and the pathophysiological relevance of this receptor cross-talk to inflammation and pain need to be further evaluated.

我们最后的项目是研究趋化因子受体与神经肽和痛觉受体的串扰，以确定影响疼痛和炎症反应的新途径。我们发现，与白细胞类似，存在于背根神经节（DRG）中的神经元表达多种细胞因子、趋化因子、阿片样物质、anandamide和其他神经肽的受体。我们之前的研究表明，先前暴露于趋化因子如MIP1a会导致PKC介导的阿片受体对阿片的趋化反应脱敏，从而潜在地增强疼痛。阿片类药物镇痛作用的减弱，在将镇痛阿片类药物注入中枢神经系统PAG之前，对给予MIP1a或RANTES的大鼠进行了增强的甩尾实验。然后，我们扩展了这些早期的研究，表明事先给药的趋化因子可使DRG神经元上的香草样蛋白（TRPV1）痛觉受体变敏感并启动辣椒素或anandamide的钙通量。这种反应也增加了疼痛，正如在体内使用辣椒素之前，在鞘内施用趋化因子时，脚爪退缩的增强所显示的那样。这种香草素受体的敏化也依赖于PKC。因此，促炎趋化因子可以通过抑制阿片样物质和增强香草样物质受体反应来增加疼痛。基于这些研究，我们预测腺苷的抗炎作用，也与GiPCR相互作用，可能对趋化因子受体有影响。事实上，我们目前的研究表明，事先添加腺苷可以抑制白细胞对多种趋化因子的体外趋化反应。此外，先前在体内注射腺苷可抑制白细胞在体内流入小鼠气囊约90%。这种趋化因子受体与腺苷A2a受体的交叉脱敏是PKA依赖性的。因此，这些研究揭示了疼痛和炎症刺激的受体介导的相互交流的新途径。干扰这些PKC和PKA依赖信号的方法以及这种受体串扰与炎症和疼痛的病理生理相关性需要进一步评估。
