Pinwheel flowers can help alleviate chronic pain

Pinwheel flowers can help alleviate chronic pain © Provided by Cover Media The pinwheel flower, a plant used in traditional Chinese medicine, could help provide a solution to those suffering from chronic pain, according to new research. Building on earlier findings, scientists from the Immuno-Pharmacology and Interactomics group at the Department of Infection and Immunity of the Luxembourg Institute of Health (LIH), in collaboration with the Center for Drug Discovery at RTI International (RTI), a non-profit research institute, discovered that compounds found in the flower provide natural pain relief. They demonstrated that conolidine, a natural painkiller derived from the plant, interacts with a receptor that regulates opioid peptides naturally produced in the brain.

New study further advances the treatment of chronic pain

Scientists from the Immuno-Pharmacology and Interactomics group at the Luxembourg Institute of Health (LIH), in collaboration with the Center for Drug Discovery at RTI International (RTI), have demonstrated that conolidine, a natural painkiller derived from the pinwheel flower and traditionally used in Chinese medicine, interacts with the newly identified opioid receptor ACKR3/CXCR7 that regulates opioid peptides naturally produced in the brain. The researchers also developed a synthetic analogue of conolidine, RTI-5152-12, which displays an even greater activity on the receptor.

New Immunotherapy Helps Treat Cat Allergy

New Immunotherapy Helps Treat Cat Allergy by Angela Mohan on  February 8, 2021 at 3:08 PM High doses of CpG oligonucleotide helps in successfully modulating the immune system s allergic response to the main cat allergen Fel d 1, inducing a tolerance-promoting reaction and reverting the main hallmarks of cat allergy, as per researchers from the Department of Infection and Immunity of the Luxembourg Institute of Health (LIH). The researchers analysed the molecular mechanisms underlying this tolerance and proposed a pre-clinical allergen-specific immunotherapy approach to improve the treatment and control of this common type of allergy. The full study results were published recently in the renowned international journal

Novel immunotherapy approach to revert the main hallmarks of cat allergy

Novel immunotherapy approach to revert the main hallmarks of cat allergy Researchers from the Department of Infection and Immunity of the Luxembourg Institute of Health (LIH) brought forward the potential of high doses of a specific adjuvant molecule, namely CpG oligonucleotide, in successfully modulating the immune system s allergic response to the main cat allergen Fel d 1, thereby inducing a tolerance-promoting reaction and reverting the main hallmarks of cat allergy. The researchers analyzed the molecular mechanisms underlying this tolerance and proposed a pre-clinical allergen-specific immunotherapy approach to improve the treatment and control of this common type of allergy.
