Input: Consider Input: Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a painful condition with approximately 50,000 annual new cases in the United States. It is a major cause of work-related disability, chronic pain after limb fractures, and persistent pain after extremity surgery. Additionally, CRPS patients often experience cognitive changes, anxiety, and depression. The supraspinal mechanisms linked to these CRPS-related comorbidities remain poorly understood.', 'The authors used a previously characterized mouse model of tibia fracture/cast immobilization showing the principal stigmata of CRPS (n = 8 to 20 per group) observed in humans. The central hypothesis was that fracture/cast mice manifest changes in measures of thigmotaxis (indicative of anxiety) and working memory reflected in neuroplastic changes in amygdala, perirhinal cortex, and hippocampus.', 'The authors demonstrate that nociceptive sensitization in these mice is accompanied by altered thigmotactic behaviors in the zero maze but not open field assay, and working memory dysfunction in novel object recognition and social memory but not in novel location recognition. Furthermore, the authors found evidence of structural changes and synaptic plasticity including changes in dendritic architecture and decreased levels of synaptophysin and brain-derived neurotrophic factor in specific brain regions.

Output: Do brain neuroplastic changes accompany anxiety and memory deficits in a model of complex regional pain syndrome?


Input: Consider Input: A transgenic mouse model has revealed parameters of the angiogenic switch during multistep tumorigenesis of pancreatic islets, and demonstrated efficacy of antiangiogenic therapies. Pericytes have been revealed as functionally important for tumor neovasculature, using kinase inhibitors targeting their platelet-derived growth factor receptors (PDGFRs). Additionally, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) inhibitors and metronomic chemotherapy show modest benefit against early- but not late-stage disease.', 'Seeking to improve efficacy against otherwise intractable end-stage pancreatic islet tumors, two receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors, imatinib and SU11248, were used to disrupt PDGFR-mediated pericyte support of tumor endothelial cells in concert with maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) or metronomic chemotherapy and/or VEGFR inhibition.', 'Imatinib, despite equivocal efficacy as monotherapy, reduced pericyte coverage of tumor vessels and enhanced efficacy in combination with metronomic chemotherapy or VEGFR inhibition. A regimen involving all three was even better. MTD using cyclophosphamide caused transitory regression, but then rapid regrowth, in contrast to metronomic cyclophosphamide plus imatinib, which produced stable disease. The MTD regimen elicited apoptosis of tumor cells but not endothelial cells, whereas the other regimens increased endothelial cell apoptosis concordant with efficacy. A "chemo-switch" protocol, involving sequential MTD and then metronomic chemotherapy, overlaid with multitargeted inhibition of PDGFR and VEGFR, gave complete responses and unprecedented survival advantage in this model.

Output: Is a multitargeted , metronomic , and maximum-tolerated dose `` chemo-switch '' regimen antiangiogenic , producing objective responses and survival benefit in a mouse model of cancer?


Input: Consider Input: Angiotensin II (Ang II) signaling has been implicated in cardiac arrhythmogenesis, which involves induction of reactive oxygen species (ROS). It was shown that Ang II can activate Ca/Calmodulin kinase II (CaMKII) by oxidation via a NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2)-dependent pathway leading to increased arrhythmic afterdepolarizations. Interestingly, cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) which regulates similar targets as CaMKII has recently been shown to be redox-sensitive as well.', 'This study aims to investigate the distinct molecular mechanisms underlying Ang II-related cardiac arrhythmias with an emphasis on the individual contribution of PKA vs. CaMKII.', 'Isolated ventricular cardiac myocytes from rats and mice were used. Ang II exposure resulted in increased NOX2-dependent ROS generation assessed by expression of redox-sensitive GFP and in myocytes loaded with ROS indicator MitoSOX. Whole cell patch clamp measurements showed that Ang II significantly increased peak Ca and Na current (ICa and INa) possibly by enhancing steady-state activation of ICa and INa. These effects were absent in myocytes lacking functional NOX2 (gp91phox(-/-)). In parallel experiments using PKA inhibitor H89, the Ang II effects on peak INa and ICa were also absent. In contrast, genetic knockout of CaMKIIδ (CaMKIIδ(-/-)) did not influence the Ang II-dependent increase in peak ICa and INa. On the other hand, Ang II enhanced INa inactivation, increased late INa and induced diastolic SR (sarcoplasmic reticulum) Ca leak (confocal Ca spark measurements) in a CaMKIIδ-, but not PKA-dependent manner. Surprisingly, only the increase in diastolic SR Ca leak was absent in gp91phox(-/-)myocytes suggesting that Ang II regulates INa inactivation in a manner dependent on CaMKII- but not on NOX2. Finally, we show that Ang II increased the propensity for cellular arrhythmias, for which PKA and CaMKII contribute, both dependent on NOX2.


Output: Does nADPH oxidase 2 mediate angiotensin II-dependent cellular arrhythmias via PKA and CaMKII?
