ABSTRACT
Gabapentin (GBP) and pregabalin (PGB) exert antinociceptive effects on chronic nociceptive responses with neuropathic or inflammatory conditions. Furthermore, it is considered that GBP and PGB exhibit antiinflammatory effects by modulating the substance P (SP)mediated neurokinin1 receptor (NK1R; a SP receptor) response. Thus, in the present study, the effects of GBP and PGB on SPinduced activation were investigated in the human glioblastoma astrocytoma U373 MG cell line, which expresses high levels of functional highaffinity NK1R, and produces interleukin (IL)6 and IL8 in response to SP. The results indicated that GBP and PGB suppressed the SPinduced production of IL6, and IL8 in U373 MG cells. Furthermore, GBP and PGB inhibited the SPinduced phosphorylation of p38 mitogenactivated protein kinase (MAPK) and nuclear factor (NF)κB, and the nuclear translocation of NFκB in U373 MG cells. Together, these observations suggest that GBP and PGB likely prevent SPinduced IL6 and IL8 production in U373 MG cells via the inhibition of signaling molecules, including p38 MAPK and NFκB, thereby exhibiting antineuroinflammatory effects.
