Male Wistar rats (35) were divided equally into seven groups, with all except the Sham group undergoing sciatic nerve ligation and receiving different formulations.On day 22, behavioral (hot plate, tail flick) and electrophysiological (sensory nerve conduction velocity, SNCV) assessments were performed. SNCV was also measured in the presence of CB1 and CB2 receptor antagonists. Additionally, blood-based markers of inflammation (TNF-α) and oxidative stress (MDA, GSH and CAT) were analysed.</p><p><strong>Results and conclusions: </strong>The vehicle group exhibited significant hyperalgesia (<i>p</i> <0.005), reduced sensory nerve conduction velocity (SNCV) (<i>p</i> <0.005) and elevated MDA and TNF-α levels, along with decreased GSH and CAT levels in both serum and sciatic nerve tissue.Among the formulations, F2 significantly improved pain latency and SNCV (<i>p</i> <0.005) compared to the vehicle group and outperformed F1, F3, F4 and pregabalin (<i>p</i> <0.05). Its effects were mediated through CB1 and CB2 receptor agonism while simultaneously reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, highlighting its potential as a promising candidate for neuropathic pain management.</p>","PeriodicalId":19131,"journal":{"name":"Neurological Research","volume":" ","pages":"745-755"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144036681","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
