To assess the effect of rostral anterior cingulate cortex (rACC) administration with ifenprodil (NR2B receptor blocker) on bone cancer pain (BCP)-related aversion sentiment using the conditioned place avoidance experiments in rats.. A total of 30 male Wistar rats without place preference were randomly assigned to three groups: control group (Group C, n = 10), BCP group (Group P, n = 10) and ifenprodil group (Group Ifen, n = 10). Three microliter MADB-106 cells were inoculated into right tibia bone marrow cavity in group P and Ifen, while the same dose of normal saline in group C as a control. Ifenprodil was administered into the rACC at the 14th day after inoculation in group Ifen and normal saline in group C and P. Mechanical stimulation pain thresholds of the rats' right hind paws were measured using Von Frey stimulation method at 1 day before injection of the tumor cells and at 3, 7,10, 12 and 14 days after the injection. The pain-related aversion in rats with BCP was determined by the conditioned place avoidance (CPA) test at 14 days after injection of ifenprodil.. The mechanical stimulation pain thresholds substantially decreased in rats in groups P and Ifen from 10 days to 14 days after the incubation with the MADB-106 cells (P < 0.05). There were significant differences in pain thresholds in groups P and Ifen compared to group C at 10, 12 and 14 days after inoculation (P < 0.05). The percentage of residence time in chamber A was (30 ± 4%) in group P, which was lower than (52 ± 5%) in group C (P < 0.05). After ifenprodil treatment, the percentage time in chamber A increased to (42 ± 5%), which was higher than that in group P and still lower than that in group C (P < 0.05).. Ifenprodil administered into rACC as a selective NR2B antagonist can effectively alleviate pain-related aversion sentiment in rats with BCP.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the analgesic effect of intrathecal injection of chemokine receptor CCR2 antagonist RS102895, and its effect on spinal expression of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor NR2B subunit, neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), and SIGIRR in a rat model of bone cancer pain (BCP). A rat model of BCP was established by intro-tibial inoculation of W256 breast cancer cells. Female SD rats were randomly divided into five groups (n = 10 each): Sham group, Sham + RS102895 group, BCP group, BCP + RS102895 group, and BCP + DMSO group. Rats received intrathecal injections of either RS102895 (3 g/l) 10 μl or 10 % DMSO 10 μl on day 9 to day 20 after operation. Pain thresholds of mechanical stimulation and thermal stimulation of each group were measured one day before and at 3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th, 15th, and 20th days after surgery. Spinal expression of NR2B, nNOS, and SIGIRR was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. CCR2 antagonist RS102895 can suppress the pain induced by both mechanical and thermal stimulation in rats with BCP. Spinal expression of CCR2, NR2B, and nNOS was significantly up-regulated, while SIGIRR was down-regulated in BCP rats, and intrathecal injection of RS102895 effectively reversed the pattern of NR2B, nNOS, and SIGIRR expression in spinal cord. Analgesic effects of CCR2 antagonist RS102895 in BCP rats may be related to its downregulation of signal transduction pathway of NMDAR/nNOS and upregulation of Toll-interleukin-1 receptor member SIGIRR.
