Association of the resolvin precursor 17-HDHA, but not D- or E- series resolvins, with heat pain sensitivity and osteoarthritis pain in humans (2017)
Journal Article
Valdes, A. M., Ravipati, S., Menni, C., Abhishek, A., Metrustry, S., Harris, J., …Barrett, D. A. (in press). Association of the resolvin precursor 17-HDHA, but not D- or E- series resolvins, with heat pain sensitivity and osteoarthritis pain in humans. Scientific Reports, 7, Article 10748. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-09516-3

Resolvins are omega-3 fatty acid derived potent bioactive lipids that resolve inflammation and modulate transient receptor potential channels. Exogenous administration of the resolvin precursor 17-HDHA shows a strong analgesic effect in animal models...

Manganese-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging depicts brain activity in models of acute and chronic pain: a new window to study experimental spontaneous pain? (2017)
Journal Article
Devonshire, I. M., Burston, J., Xu, L., Lillywhite, A., Prior, M., Watson, D. J., …Chapman, V. (2017). Manganese-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging depicts brain activity in models of acute and chronic pain: a new window to study experimental spontaneous pain?. NeuroImage, 157, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2017.06.034

Application of functional imaging techniques to animal models is vital to understand pain mechanisms, but is often confounded by the need to limit movement artefacts with anaesthesia, and a focus on evoked responses rather than clinically relevant sp...

Pain prediction by serum biomarkers of bone turnover in people with knee osteoarthritis: an observational study of TRAcP5b and cathepsin K in OA (2017)
Journal Article
Nwosu, L. N., Allen, M., Wyatt, L., Huebner, J., Chapman, V., Walsh, D. A., & Kraus, V. (2017). Pain prediction by serum biomarkers of bone turnover in people with knee osteoarthritis: an observational study of TRAcP5b and cathepsin K in OA. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, 25(6), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joca.2017.01.002

Objectives: To investigate serum biomarkers, tartrate resistant acid phosphatase 5b (TRAcP5b) and cathepsin K, indicative of osteoclastic bone resorption, and their relationship to pain and pain change in knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods: Sera and... Read More about Pain prediction by serum biomarkers of bone turnover in people with knee osteoarthritis: an observational study of TRAcP5b and cathepsin K in OA.
