We next refer mainly to our initial work performed at a time when most immunologists were concentrated in clarifying aspects of the immune system that are essential for its regulation from within. The first approach was to explore whether immune responses to innocuous antigens and superantigens can elicit changes in the activity of the SNS, and their potential relevance for the regulation of the activity of the immune system. The following step was to explore whether comparable immune-SNS interactions are detected in different models of diseases with immune components, such as parasitic and viral infections and autoimmune pathologies.</p><p><strong>Key messages: </strong>We pose some general considerations that may at least partially explain seemly discrepant findings, and remark the importance of interpreting immunoregulatory effects of the SNS together with other neuro-endocrine inputs that simultaneously occur when the activity of the immune system changes.

Interestingly, the physiology of this primary organ is not only under the control of the central nervous system (CNS) but also exhibits autocrine/paracrine regulatory circuitries mediated by hormones and neuropeptides that can be altered in situations of infectious stress or chronic inflammation.

However, the central aspects of neuroimmune interactions have not been fully appreciated until the late 1900s, when a growing interest in how cytokines in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) might be relevant in chronic pain conditions emerged. Since then, the field has evolved, and nowadays neuroinflammation is considered to be involved in the pathophysiology of chronic pain. Whether or not pain conditions can be called \"neuroinflammatory\" is a matter of debate. This review summarizes the results from studies investigating cytokines in the CSF in various pain conditions, and critically discusses neuroimmune aspects of pain conditions using previously proposed hallmarks of neuroinflammation as a framework.</p><p><strong>Summary: </strong>Fifty-two papers were summarized and their results evaluated according to (a) the level of the measured cytokines in patients compared to controls, and (b) the correlation between cytokine level and pain intensity. A subdivision based on pain type was also conducted for each of the 52 studies. A total of 49 proteins have been studied in at least 5 studies, 21 of which were upregulated in a majority of studies. IL-8 was specifically upregulated in a majority of studies of nociceptive pain conditions. Regarding correlation to pain intensity, there is a scarcity of data but 31 proteins were upregulated and correlated with pain in at least one study. Of these, 24 proteins were negatively correlated with pain, and 7 were positively correlated. None of the most studied cytokines, such as TNF, IL-1b, IL-6, IL-8, CCL2/MCP1, BDNF, or bNGF, were consistently correlated to pain.</p><p><strong>Key messages: </strong>There is sufficient evidence to say that chronic pain conditions come with an upregulation of several cytokines. However, the majority of correlations to symptomatology seem to be negative, indicating that the cytokines might play a protective role that has not been broadly considered. Calling chronic pain conditions neuroinflammatory seems wrong; instead, a more suitable term for depicting the findings would, perhaps, be to talk about neuroimmune activation.</p>","PeriodicalId":19133,"journal":{"name":"Neuroimmunomodulation","volume":" ","pages":"157-172"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141620427","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}
