Eleutherine Americana

Introduction: Pain is an unpleasant experience that reduces a person's quality of life. Pain related complain can be treated by administering analgesic drugs. Several studies show that the availability of analgesics is still low, especially opioid analgesics. Dayak onion (Eleutherine americana (Aubl.) Merr.) are used by the Dayaks to relieve pain. Several empirical studies have shown that Dayak onion contain compounds including quercetin as a potential analgesic. This research aimed to investigate the potential analgesic effect of Dayak onion using hot plate method.Methods: The research was conducted experimentally on 36 BALB/c male mice which randomly divided into 6 different treatment groups of Dayak onion exctract, aspirin, codein and aquadest. Each group were thermally pain-induced for latency period measurement by the hot plate test method. Obtained data were processed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) followed by Dunnett test.Results: There was a difference in the latency period between the baseline response time and the response time after being treated in each group. ANOVA test results showed significant results (p<0.05) so that the resulting latency period was significant. Dunnett test results showed significant results (p<0.05) in negative control group. Based on these results, Dayak onion are proven to have an analgesic effect on heat stimulation.Conclusion: Dayak onion possess significant analgesic effect on thermally pain-induced mice. Dayak onion extract 90 mg/kg mouse produced better analgesic effects than aspirin 65 mg/kg mouse.

The aim of this work is to develop a guarded hot plate test apparatus for measuring the thermal conductivity of polymer specimen, the size of which is smaller and thicker than that recommended by the ISO and JIS. The authors made three experimental apparatus suitable for the different sizes of specimen 50×50, 100×100 and 200×200 mm2 in area, measured the thermal conductivity of polymer as homogeneous materials, which ranged from 0.2 to 0.6 W·m−1·K−1, and carried out the numerical analysis. The uncertainty for the measurement of the thermal conductivity of the polymer specimens is estimated to be within ±4% using our test apparatus. For the test apparatus suitable for the specimen 50×50 mm2, the gap has an effect on the measurement of the thermal conductivity. In addition, the temperature difference ΔTg of the heat source has a direct influence on the deviation in the thermal conductivity data. The influence of the aspect ratio of the specimen and gap width on the measurement is estimated to be within 0.9% for the specimens 50×50 mm2 used in the present study.

Background: Prenatal antiepileptic drug exposure could demonstrate both congenital malformations and behavioral impairments in offspring. Objective: This study was performed to assess the effects of prenatal exposure to pregabalin (PGB) on pain response, anxiety, motor activity and some behavior of adult offspring rats. Methods: Pregnant Wistar rats received PGB (7.5, 15 and 30 mg/kg/ip) during embryonic days 9.5- 15.5. The pain response, anxiety-like behaviors, locomotor activity, motor balance and coordination and anhedonia of adult offspring were examined by tail-flick and hot plate test, open field test, elevated plus maze (EPM), beam balance test and sucrose preference test in their 60th day of life, respectively. Results: Prenatal exposure to PGB revealed significant dose-dependent reduction in pain sensitivity (increase in pain latency response) in the hot plate test, especially in females, while anxiety-like behavior assessed in EPM and open field significantly reduced in males. In the open field, locomotor activity reduced significantly after exposure to PGB 30 mg/kg and motor coordination decreased dose-dependently, especially in males. Anhedonia, as an indication of sucrose preference or pleasure response, was not changed. Conclusion: These findings suggest that prenatal PGB exposure could be associated with significant changes in pain response, anxiety, locomotor activity and coordination in adult offspring rats.

Abstract Background To investigate the antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities of aqueous extract of a blended mixture of dried leaves of Ocimum gratissimum and Psidium guajava, a traditional analgesic drug polyherbal (TADP) used as a remedy for pain-related conditions. Methods Antinociceptive activity of TADP (100, 200 and 400 mg/kg) was evaluated in the hot plate test and acetic acid-induced nociception in mice while the anti-inflammatory was evaluated in carrageenan-induced paw oedema in rats. Levels of nitrite, myeloperoxidase, glutathione and malondialdehyde were assayed in carrageenan-induced paw tissue. Results TADP (200 and 400 mg/kg) significantly prolong the latency time in the hot-plate test. TADP (100–400 mg/kg) produced a dose-dependent significant inhibition of the acetic-acid induced abdominal constriction. The antinociceptive activity of TADP in the presence of naloxone and atropine was not reversed whereas yohimbine and glibenclamide significantly reversed it. TADP (100, 200 and 400 mg/kg) significantly reduced the swelling in the carrageenan-induced oedema model and also produced a reduction in the nitrite and myeloperoxidase level. TADP (400 mg/kg) significantly reduced malondialdehyde concentration and increase glutathione level in the carrageenan-induced rat paw. TADP significantly decrease the number of cellular infiltrates in the histopathological assessment. Conclusion These results indicate that polyherbal product containing blended leaves of Ocimum gratissimum and Psidium guajava possess antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory properties, hence represents a promising alternative remedy in inflammation-induced pain.

Pain Patients

Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) has been applied for chronic pain for decades. The amounts of opioids to treat pain are sometimes reduced after a series of ECT. The effect of ECT on morphine-induced analgesia and its mechanism underlying the reduction of morphine requirement has yet to be clarified. Therefore, we administered electroconvulsive shocks (ECS) to mice and investigated the antinociceptive effect of morphine in a hot plate test. We examined the expression level of µ-opioid receptor in the thalami of mice 25 h after administration of ECS compared to the thalami of mice without ECS administration using western blotting. ECS disturbed the development of a decrease in the percentage of maximal possible effect (%MPE), which was observed 24 h after a morphine injection, when ECS was applied 25, 23, 21, and 12 h before the second administration of morphine. We also examined the effect of ECS on the dose-response curve of %MPE to morphine-antinociception. Twenty-five hours after ECS, the dose-response curve was shifted to the left, and the EC50 of morphine given to ECS-pretreated mice decreased by 30.1% compared to the mice that were not pretreated with ECS. We also found that the expression level of µ-opioid receptors was significantly increased after ECS administration. These results confirm previous clinical reports showing that ECT decreased the required dose of opioids in neuropathic pain patients and suggest the hypothesis that this effect of ECT works through the thalamus.

Introduction: Opioid analgesics are the most efficient and widely used drugs for the management of moderate to severe pain. However, side effects associated with mu receptor activation, such as respiratory depression, tolerance and physical dependence severely limit their clinical application. Currently, the kappa-opioid system is the most attractive in terms of the clinical problem of pain, because kappa-agonists do not cause euphoria and physical dependence. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antinociceptive effect of the novel compound - RU-1205. Methods: The analgesic activity of RU-1205 was studied on nociceptive models that characterize the central and peripheral pathways of pain sensitivity (hot plate test, electrically induced vocalisation, formalin test, writhing test). Results: RU-1205 exhibited highly potent antinociceptive effects in rodent models of acute pain with ED50 values of 0.002 - 0.49 mg /kg. Pretreatment with the κ-opioid receptor antagonist norBinaltorphimine significantly attenuated the analgesic activity of investigated substance in a hot plate test. Conclusions: It was established that the compound shows a significant dose-dependent central and peripheral analgesic effect. It was assumed kappa-opioidergic mechanism of analgesic effect of RU-1205.

The goal of the study was to develop, synthesise, and characterise a novel 1,3,5-trisubstituted-2-pyrazolines derivative, as well as to assess its analgesic potential. The reaction of chalcone derivatives with 4-hydrazinylbenzene sulfonamide hydrochloride and phenyl hydrazine hydrochloride yielded 1,3,5-tri-substituted-2-pyrazolines derivatives. The IR, 1HNMR, and mass spectrum analyses were used to characterise a total of sixteen substances. Analgesic activity of the proposed substances has been tested. The analgesic effect of the produced compounds was tested using two methods: the hot plate test technique and acetic acid induced writhing in mice. To compare the effectiveness, pentazocine and acetyl acetic acid were utilised as reference drugs. The hot plate test technique and acetic acid induced writhing in mice were used to assess the analgesic effect of the 16 produced chemical series A1-A8, and B1-B8. The evaluation's outcomes were viewed using Pentazocine and acetyl acetic acid as the standard drugs. In a 90-minute hot plate test, compounds A2 (10.30 s), A4 (9.45 s), A7 (11.65 s), and A8 (11.26 s) showed a delay in paw withdrawal latency time. Compounds B2 (9.10 s) and B7 (10.42 s) prolong the paw withdrawal latency time after 90 minutes in series B1-B8, reduce the pain feeling, and inhibit pain induced by heat methods. Compounds A2, A5, A6, A7, and A8 from Series A1-A8 showed 83.00, 76.01, 80.34, 86.99, 88.15 percent inhibition, substantially (p0.05 and p0.001, respectively), and decreased the number of wriths caused by 0.6 percent acetic acid at a dosage of 10 mg/kg. Acetylsalicylic acid (10 mg/kg) appears to be more successful in lowering the number of wriths, with a 99.0% reduction in the number of wriths (p0.001). B1, B3, and B4 have the least amount of active activity. These all finding suggest that these synthesized compounds have the potential as analgesic agent.
