Abstract

It is well known that remifentanil, a widely used intravenous anesthesia drug, can paradoxically induce hyperalgesia. The underlying mechanisms are still not clear despite the wide investigations. The present study demonstrated that withdrawal from spinal application of remifentanil could dose-dependently induce long term potentiation (LTP) of C-fiber evoked field potentials. Remifentanil withdrawal could activate Src family kinases (SFKs) in microglia, and upregulate the expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) in spinal dorsal horn. Furthermore, pretreatment with either microglia inhibitor Minocycline, SFKs inhibitor PP2 or TNF αneutralization antibody could block remifentanil withdrawal induced spinal LTP, whereas supplement of recombinant rat TNFα to the spinal cord could reverse the inhibitory effect of Minocycline or PP2 on remifentanil withdrawal induced LTP. Our results suggested that TNFαrelease following SFKs activation in microglia is involved in the induction of LTP induced by remifentanil withdrawal.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 01 July 2018.
All research outputs
#20,523,725
of 23,092,602 outputs
Outputs from Neurochemical Research
#1,707
of 2,116 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#288,669
of 329,246 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Neurochemical Research
#17
of 27 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,092,602 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,116 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.3. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 329,246 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 27 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
