چکیده انگلیسی
Chronic pain is the most common non-motor symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD) and is often overlooked. Unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) medial forebrain bundle lesioned rats used as models for PD exhibit decreased sensory thresholds in the left hindpaw. Subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN DBS) increases mechanical thresholds and offers improvements with chronic pain in PD patients. However, individual responses to STN high frequency stimulation (HFS) in parkinsonian rats vary with 58% showing over 100% improvement, 25% showing 30-55% improvement, and 17% showing no improvement. Here we augment STN DBS by supplementing with a serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor commonly prescribed for pain, duloxetine. Duloxetine was administered intraperitoneally (30Â mg/kg) in 15 parkinsonian rats unilaterally implanted with STN stimulating electrodes in the lesioned right hemisphere. Sensory thresholds were tested using von Frey, Randall-Selitto and hot-plate tests with or without duloxetine, and stimulation to the STN at HFS (150Â Hz), low frequency (LFS, 50Â Hz), or off stimulation. With HFS or LFS alone (left paw; p=0.016; p=0.024, respectively), animals exhibited a higher mechanical thresholds stable in the three days of testing, but not with duloxetine alone (left paw; p=0.183). Interestingly, the combination of duloxetine and HFS produced significantly higher mechanical thresholds than duloxetine alone (left paw, p=0.002), HFS alone (left paw, p=0.028), or baseline levels (left paw; p<0.001). These findings show that duloxetine paired with STN HFS increases mechanical thresholds in 6-OHDA-lesioned animals more than either treatment alone. It is possible that duloxetine augments STN DBS with a central and peripheral additive effect, though a synergistic mechanism has not been excluded.
