Capsaicinoids in the treatment of neuropathic pain: a review.

Abstract
The treatment of neuropathic pain is difficult. Oral pharmaceuticals have significant side effects, and treatment efficacy tends to be modest. The use of topical analgesics reduces the potential for systemic side effects and allows direct application of medications to the area of pain. The natural spicy substance, capsaicin, has historically been known for its topical use. Capsaicin, once applied to the skin, causes a brief initial sensitization followed by a prolonged desensitization of the local pain nerves. This occurs through stimulation of the transient receptor potential vanilloid-1 (TRPV1) expressing pain nerve fibers. While low-dose capsaicin has not resulted in good efficacy, the larger dose 8% topical capsaicin has had some of the best data currently available in the treatment of post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN) and other neuropathic conditions. This paper discusses the data currently existing for capsaicin 8% in the treatment of PHN. It further reviews data for the low-dose capsaicin products and the current status in the development of other capsaicinoids, e.g. resiniferotoxin, and high-concentration liquid capsaicin.

Abstract
The identification and cloning of the vanilloid receptor 1 (TRPV1) represented a significant step for the understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the transduction of noxious chemical and thermal stimuli by peripheral nociceptors. TRPV1 is a non-selective cation channel gated by noxious heat, vanilloids and extracellular protons. TRPV1 channel activity is remarkably potentiated by pro-inflammatory agents, a phenomenon that is thought to underlie the peripheral sensitisation of nociceptors that leads to thermal hyperalgesia. Cumulative evidence is building a strong case for the involvement of this receptor in the etiology of both peripheral and visceral inflammatory pain, such as inflammatory bowel disease, bladder inflammation and cancer pain. The validation of TRPV1 receptor as a key therapeutic target for pain management has thrust intensive drug discovery programs aimed at developing orally active antagonists of the receptor protein. Nonetheless, the real challenge of these drug discovery platforms is to develop antagonists that preserve the physiological activity of TRPV1 receptors while correcting over-active channels. This is a condition to ensure normal pro-prioceptive and nociceptive responses that represent a safety mechanism to prevent tissue injury. Recent and exciting advances in the function, dysfunction and modulation of this receptor will be the focus of this review.
