Gardell LR, Hyldtoft L, Del Tredici AL, Andersen CB, Fairbairn LC, Lund BW, Gustafsson M, Brann MR, Olsson R, Piu F: Differential modulation of inflammatory pain by a selective estrogen receptor beta agonist. Eur J Pharmacol. 2008 Sep 11;592(1-3):158-9. Epub 2008 Jul 4. To understand the contribution of the estrogen receptor beta, the potent and selective agonist ERb-131 was evaluated in animal models of inflammatory pain. In paradigms of acute and persistent inflammatory pain, ERb-131 did not alleviate the nociception induced by either carrageenan or formalin. However, in the chronic complete Freund's adjuvant model, ERb-131 resolved both inflammatory and hyperalgesic components. Thus, ERb-131 is sufficient to alleviate chronic but not acute inflammatory pain states. |
