Abstract: Pain is a major and common symptom reported as top priority in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Intuitively, RA-related pain often considered to be natural consequence of peripheral inflammation, so treatment RA expected manage concurrently part inflammation control. However, can poorly correlated objective measures for example, who are otherwise remission. Joint damage appears account only fraction this residual pain. Emerging evidence suggests that alteration central processing contributes pain; parallel to, but somewhat independent of, joint inflammation. Interleukin (IL)-6 proinflammatory cytokine the pathogenesis RA. It exerts systemic effects via signaling through soluble forms IL-6 receptor ("trans-signaling"). Evidence from preclinical studies demonstrates intra-articular produce long-lasting sensitization mechanical stimulation an important role sensitization. This may partly explained by its ability activate neurons trans-signaling, affecting nociceptive plasticity nerve fiber regrowth.

The global burden of chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a major concern in public health. Several CLBP epidemiological studies have been conducted high-income-countries (HICs) with little known low-and-middle-income-countries (LMICs) due to other competing priorities communicable diseases. extrapolation results from HICs for use LMICs difficult differences social norms, healthcare systems, and legislations, yet there urgent need address this growing burden.

Chronic pain is one of the most prevalent health problems. The establishment chronic complex. Current medication for mainly dependent on anticonvulsants, tricyclic antidepressants and opioidergic drugs. However, they have limited therapeutic efficacy, some even with severe side effects. We turned our interest into alkaloids separated from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), that usually act multiple drug targets. In this article, we introduced best-studied analgesic derived TCM, including tetrahydropalmatine, aloperine, oxysophocarpine, matrine, sinomenine, ligustrazine, evodiamine, brucine, tetrandrine, Stopholidine, lappaconitine, focusing their mechanisms potential clinical applications. To better describe mechanism these alkaloids, adopted concept drug-cloud (dCloud) theory. dCloud illustrated full spectrum multitarget analgesics two dimensions, which are “direct efficacy”, inhibition ion channels, activating γ-Aminobutyric Acid/opioid receptors, to suppress signal directly; “background reducing neuronal inflammation/oxidative stress, glial cell activation, restoring balance between excitatory inhibitory neurotransmission, cure root causes pain. Empirical evidence showed combination beneficial 30–50% patients. promote discovery effective combinations, an ancient regimen combines herbal drugs “Jun”, “Chen”, “Zuo”, “Shi” properties. dCloud, “Jun” acts directly major symptom disease; “Chen” generates background effects; “Zuo” has salutary supportive functions; facilitates delivery targeted tissue.
