Nonsteroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are major drugs against
inflammation and pain. They are well known inhibitors of
cyclooxygenases (COXs). However, many studies indicate that they may
also act on other targets. Acidosis is observed in inflammatory conditions such as chronic joint inflammation, in tumors and after ischemia, and greatly contributes to pain and hyperalgesia.
Administration of NSAIDs reduces low-pH-induced pain. The acid
sensitivity of nociceptors is associated with activation of
H+-gated ion channels. Several of these, cloned
recently, correspond to the acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) and
others to the vanilloid receptor family. This paper shows (1) that ASIC
mRNAs are present in many small sensory neurons along with substance P
and isolectin B4 and that, in case of inflammation, ASIC1a appears in
some larger A fibers, (2) that NSAIDs prevent the large increase of
ASIC expression in sensory neurons induced by inflammation, and (3) that NSAIDs such as aspirin, diclofenac, and flurbiprofen directly inhibit ASIC currents on sensory neurons and when cloned ASICs are
heterologously expressed. These results suggest that the combined capacity to block COXs and inhibit both inflammation-induced expression and activity of ASICs present in nociceptors is an important factor in
the action of NSAIDs against pain.
