Nociceptive Signaling Antagonist Protocols

SP was obtained from GenScript (Piscataway, NJ) and dissolved in 1× PBS. The NK-1R antagonist L733060 and the dual NK-1R/Mrgprs antagonist QWF (Boc-Gln-D-Trp[formyl]-Phe benzyl ester trifluoroacetate) were obtained from Sigma (St Louis, Mo). QWF and L733060 were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO; Sigma) at 10 mmol/L and diluted in PBS for use at concentrations of 500 µmol/L or less. In the nociceptive studies with Capsaicin, in which QWF was diluted in DMSO, the final concentration of DMSO was 0.01%. Capsaicin was obtained from Tocris Bioscience (Bristol, United Kingdom).

Six-week-old male Balb/c mice were obtained from Chiyoda Kaihatsu (Tokyo, Japan). Animals were treated in accordance with the ARVO Statement for the Use of Animals in Ophthalmic and Vision Research, and the study was approved by the Animal Care and Use Committee of Yamaguchi University (approval no. 41-032). Synthetic SSSR and FGLM-NH2 peptides were synthesized by the Peptide Institute (Osaka, Japan), and the NK-1R antagonist L-733,060 was obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA).

Exploring Nociceptive Modulation via NK1R

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The drugs used were (i) the NK1R agonist, Substance P (SP; 1 and 2 μg/μl; #S6883, Sigma, USA), (ii) the NK1R antagonist, L-733,060 (1 ×: 0.0176 µg/µl and  × 0.176 µg/µl; #1145, Tocris Bioscience, UK) and (iii) the cholinergic receptor agonist, carbamoylcholine chloride (carbachol; 0.156 μg/μl; #C4382, Sigma, USA).
The functional effects of different doses of SP and L-733,060 were explored in this study. Notably, 1 × concentration of L-733,060 in the present study is anti-nociceptive on microinjection into the rostral ventral medulla48 (link). While we initially used the lower dose of L-733,060, arising from the results, especially in behaving animals, we also examined the effect of the higher dose of L-733,060 to explore whether the different aspects of nociception are differentially sensitive to antagonism by the antagonist. The concentration of carbachol used in the experiments is based on published work65 (link).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
