Brief Summary: This protocol is for a number of in vitro studies using human surgical biopsies and evaluating the pharmacology and genetics of human nociceptors pain detecting neurons
Detailed Description: PurposeObjectives

a Specific Aims Specific Aim 1 Characterize in humans the effects of inflammation and neuronal degeneration on peripheral levels of NPY and related Y receptors Y1 Y2 Y5 in periradicular tissue

Specific Aim 2 Determine whether NPY inhibits neurosecretion from peripheral terminals of capsaicin-sensitive neurons innervating normal versus inflamed tissue

Specific Aim 3 Determine whether peripheral administration of NPY is analgesic andor anti-allodynic in patients experiencing spontaneous pain and mechanical allodynia in a clinical model of inflammation with associated neuronal degeneration

Specific Aim 4 Evaluate whether population characteristics are associated with altered pain reports First we will determine whether patients with the C1128 single nucleotide polymorphism SNP of the PreProNPY gene whose phenotype confers substantially augmented peripheral NPY neurosecretion report less pain compared with patients without this genetic polymorphism Second we will determine whether ethniccultural factors associated with an underserved minority population Hispanics in the San Antonio area are associated with altered pain reports
