Protease-Activated Receptor 2 (PAR2) expressed in sensory neurons contributes to signs of pain and neuropathy in paclitaxel treated mice

Moeno Kume, Ayesha Ahmad, Kathryn DeFea, Josef Vágner, Gregory O. Dussor, Scott A. Boitano, Theodore John Price

This study shows that PAR2 in sensory neurons contributes to paclitaxel-induced pain and neuropathy in mice, and that targeting PAR2 can alleviate these symptoms.

A role for protease activated receptor type 3 (PAR3) in nociception demonstrated through development of a novel peptide agonist

Juliet M. Mwirigi, Moeno Kume, Shayne N. Hassler, Ayesha Ahmad, Pradipta R. Ray, Changyu Jiang, Alexander G. Chamessian, Nakleh Mseeh, Breya P. Ludwig, Benjamin D. Rivera, Marvin T. Nieman, Thomas Van de Ven, Ru‐Rong Ji, Gregory O. Dussor, Scott A. Boitano, , Theodore John Price

The paper develops a PAR3 agonist and shows it induces mechanical hypersensitivity in mice, suggesting PAR3's role in nociception and plasticity.

The cellular basis of protease activated receptor type 2 (PAR2) evoked mechanical and affective pain

Shayne N. Hassler, Moeno Kume, Juliet M. Mwirigi, Ayesha Ahmad, Stephanie I. Shiers, Andi Wangzhou, Pradipta R. Ray, Sergei Belugin, Dhananjay K. Naik, Michael D. Burton, Josef Vágner, Scott A. Boitano, Armen N. Akopian, Gregory O. Dussor, Theodore John Price

This study identifies a specific subset of sensory neurons expressing PAR2 that mediate mechanical and affective pain behaviors, clarifying the cellular basis of PAR2-evoked pain.
