We recruited cognitively healthy middle to older aged (age 45–85) adults with (n = 182) and without (n = 31) self-reported KOA pain. We also extracted DNA from peripheral blood that was analyzed using MethylationEPIC arrays. The R package <em>minfi</em> (<span>Aryee et al., 2014</span>) was used to perform methylation data preprocessing and quality control. To investigate biological pathways impacted by differential methylation, we performed pathway enrichment analysis using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) to identify canonical pathways and upstream regulators. Annotated genes within ± 5 kb of the putative differentially methylated regions (DMRs, p &lt; 0.05) were subjected to the IPA analysis. There was no significant difference in age, sex, study site between no pain and pain group (p &gt; 0.05). Non-Hispanic black individuals were overrepresented in the pain group (p = 0.003). At raw p &lt; 0.05 cutoff, we identified a total of 19,710 CpG probes, including 13,951 hypermethylated CpG probes, for which DNA methylation level was higher in the groups with highest pain grades. We also identified 5,759 hypomethylated CpG probes for which DNA methylation level was lower in the pain groups with higher pain grades. IPA revealed that pain-related DMRs were enriched across multiple pathways and upstream regulators. The top 10 canonical pathways were linked to cellular signaling processes related to immune responses (i.e., antigen presentation, PD-1, PD-L1 cancer immunotherapy, B cell development, IL-4 signaling, Th1 and Th2 activation pathway, and phagosome maturation). Moreover, in terms of upstream regulators, NDUFAF3 was the most significant (p = 8.6E-04) upstream regulator. Our findings support previous preliminary work suggesting the importance of epigenetic regulation of the immune system in knee pain and the need for future work to understand the epigenetic contributions to chronic pain.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52177,"journal":{"name":"Neurobiology of Pain","volume":"12 ","pages":"Article 100107"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9755025/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10638422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A better understanding of pain’s molecular mechanisms is necessary for developing safe and effective therapeutics. Microglial activation has been implicated as a mediator of chronic pain in numerous preclinical studies; unfortunately, translational efforts using known glial modulators have largely failed, perhaps at least in part due to poor specificity of the compounds pursued, or an incomplete understanding of microglial reactivity. In order to achieve a more granular understanding of the role of microglia in chronic pain as a means of optimizing translational efforts, we utilized a clinically-informed mouse model of complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), and monitored microglial activation throughout pain progression. We discovered that while both males and females exhibit spinal cord microglial activation as evidenced by increases in Iba1, activation is attenuated and delayed in females. We further evaluated the expression of the newly identified microglia-specific marker, TMEM119, and identified two distinct populations in the spinal cord parenchyma after peripheral injury: TMEM119+ microglia and TMEM119- infiltrating myeloid lineage cells, which are comprised of Ly6G + neutrophils and Ly6G- macrophages/monocytes. Neurons are sensitized by inflammatory mediators released in the CNS after injury; however, the cellular source of these cytokines remains somewhat unclear. Using multiplex <em>in situ</em> hybridization in combination with immunohistochemistry, we demonstrate that spinal cord TMEM119+ microglia are the cellular source of cytokines IL6 and IL1β after peripheral injury. Taken together, these data have important implications for translational studies: 1) microglia remain a viable analgesic target for males and females, so long as duration after injury is considered; 2) the analgesic properties of microglial modulators are likely at least in part related to their suppression of microglial-released cytokines, and 3) a limited number of neutrophils and macrophages/monocytes infiltrate the spinal cord after peripheral injury but have unknown impact on pain persistence or resolution. Further studies to uncover glial-targeted therapeutic interventions will need to consider sex, timing after injury, and the exact target population of interest to have the specificity necessary for translation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52177,"journal":{"name":"Neurobiology of Pain","volume":"12 ","pages":"Article 100106"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/f8/b4/main.PMC9755061.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9517375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to determine if DOR expressed in peripheral nociceptors regulates headache associated endpoints and the effect of delta agonists within these mouse models. We used a conditional knockout, in which DOR was selectively deleted from Nav1.8 expressing cells. Nav1.8-DOR mice and loxP control littermates were tested in models of chronic migraine-associated allodynia, opioid-induced hyperalgesia, migraine-associated negative affect, and aura. Nav1.8-DOR and loxP mice had comparable effect sizes in all of these models. The anti-allodynic effect of the DOR agonist, SNC80, was slightly diminished in the nitroglycerin model of migraine. Intriguingly, in the OIH model the peripheral effects of SNC80 were completely lost in Nav1.8-DOR mice while the cephalic effects remained intact. Regardless of genotype, SNC80 continued to inhibit conditioned place aversion associated with nitroglycerin and decreased cortical spreading depression events associated with migraine aura. These results suggest that DOR in Nav1.8-expressing nociceptors do not critically regulate the anti-migraine effects of delta agonist; and that brain-penetrant delta agonists would be a more effective drug development strategy.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52177,"journal":{"name":"Neurobiology of Pain","volume":"12 ","pages":"Article 100099"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/61/22/main.PMC9289726.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40524429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This process results in changes in several brain networks related to both pain and non-pain behaviours. The second mechanism is the decrease in endogenous brainstem inhibitory control, hence increasing the excitability of neurons in the trigeminal noceptive system and cerebral cortex.
