ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a common and difficult-to-treat neuropathic pain disorder in clinical practice. Previous studies have shown that Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) modulates the activation of the NF-κB pathway to affect neuropathic pain in rats. Voltage-gated sodium channels (VGSCs) are known to play an important role in neuropathic pain electrical activity.OBJECTIVE:
To investigate whether TLR4 can regulate Nav1.3 through the TRAF6/NF-κB p65 pathway after infraorbital nerve chronic constriction injury (ION-CCI). STUDYDESIGN:
ION-CCI modeling was performed on SD (Sprague Dawley) rats. To verify the success of the modeling, we need to detect the mechanical pain threshold and ATF3. Then, detecting the expression of TLR4, TRAF6, NF-κB p65, p-p65, and Nav1.3 in rat TG. Subsequently, investigate the role of TLR4/TRAF6/NF-κB pathway in ION-CCI model by intrathecal injections of LPS-rs (TLR4 antagonist), C25-140 (TRAF6 inhibitor), and PDTC (NF-κB p65 inhibitor).RESULTS:
ION-CCI surgery decreased the mechanical pain threshold of rats and increased the expression of ATF3, TLR4, TRAF6, NF-κB p-p65 and Nav1.3, but there was no difference in NF-κB p65 expression. After inject antagonist or inhibitor of the TLR4/TRAF6/NF-κB pathway, the expression of Nav1.3 was decreased and mechanical pain threshold was increased.CONCLUSION:
In the rat model of ION-CCI, TLR4 in the rat trigeminal ganglion regulates Nav1.3 through the TRAF6/NF-κB p65 pathway, and TLR4 antagonist alleviates neuropathic pain in ION-CCI rats.Palabras clave
