Pain pathway and GABA ReceptorPain pathway and GABA ReceptorNeuropathic Pain mechanism?
Reduction or elimination of spinal cord inhibition
Ectopic activity in primary afferents
Induction of central sensitisation in the dorsal horn :- Diminution of presynaptic inhibition at the central terminals of myelinated fibers (Wall & Devor 1981)
- Loss of GABAergic inhibition in the sup dorsal horn (termination of small caliber primary afferents) (Moore, 2002)
Degeneration of dorsal horn neurons, and especially GABAergic inhibitory neurons

GABA Receptors
2 types of GABA receptors:
GABAA: ionotropic receptor
GABAB: metabotropic receptor
GABAA/B agonist: hyperalgesia and allodynia
GABAA/B antagonist :
neuropathic pain-like syndrome

Does it modify the representation of pain in the central nervous system?
Functional MRI study
![Page 26: Reversal of pathological pain through specific spinal GABA A receptor subtypes Julia Knabl, Robert Witschi, Katharina Ho, Heiko Reinold, Ulrike B. Zeilhofer,](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c7b5503460f9492f580/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Functionnal MRI
Technique:• Mesure blood flow related to neural activity (Blood oxygenation level dependant: BOLD)• Map brain with changes in paramagnetic desoxyhemoglobin content
Bruce, Neuroimage, 2011
![Page 27: Reversal of pathological pain through specific spinal GABA A receptor subtypes Julia Knabl, Robert Witschi, Katharina Ho, Heiko Reinold, Ulrike B. Zeilhofer,](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c7b5503460f9492f580/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Functionnal MRI
Advantages
Correlated to oxygen consumption in healthy subject : Brain function map
Used since years to assess neuronal activity
Drawbacks
Moderate spatial/temporal resolution: 1 voxel = 1 to 4 mm²
Indirect measure of neural activity:
Implies a stable CBF/CMRO² ratio
Difficulties to analyse in pathologic state: changes with age, disease, pharmacological manipulation
Needs anaesthesia ( & pain evaluation?)
![Page 28: Reversal of pathological pain through specific spinal GABA A receptor subtypes Julia Knabl, Robert Witschi, Katharina Ho, Heiko Reinold, Ulrike B. Zeilhofer,](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c7b5503460f9492f580/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Emotional component• Limbic system• Frontal association cortex
Sensory & discriminative component:•Medial thalamus Controlateral• Primary sensory cortex

Is the representation of pain also reduced with subtype-selective BZD-binding site agonist?
Hyperalgesia
Emotional, sensory and discriminative component
are reduced with α1 sparing BZP ligand in
neuropathic pain

Conclusion
Points of interest
• Integrative approach with complementary techniques
• Several models of pain:– Inflammatory pain– Neuropathic pain
• Major potential clinical interest
![Page 30: Reversal of pathological pain through specific spinal GABA A receptor subtypes Julia Knabl, Robert Witschi, Katharina Ho, Heiko Reinold, Ulrike B. Zeilhofer,](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022110319/56649c7b5503460f9492f580/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Take home message
Neuropathic pain is mediated by:
• α2 and α3 GABAA subtypes receptors• in pre and post synaptic GABAA receptor
α1 sparing BZP ligand (partial agonist at α2 and α3)in neuropathic pain:
• Can reduced pain behavior to thermal nociception• Reduced pain representation (discriminative and emotional
components) • Avoid benzodiazepine side effects (hypnotic, addictives properties)
