(1) Background: Milnacipran is a typical serotonin–norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor and has been shown to have analgesic effects in several pain models. However, its antihyperalgesic effect in cisplatin-induced neuropathy remains unknown. We examined the effects of intraperitoneal (IP) milnacipran on allodynia in cisplatin-induced peripheral neuropathic mice. (2) Methods: Peripheral neuropathy was induced by injecting cisplatin (2.3 mg/kg/day, IP) six times, on every other day. Saline or milnacipran (10, 30, 50 mg/kg, IP) were then administered to the neuropathic mice. We examined mechanical allodynia using von Frey hairs at preadministration and at 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240 min and 24 h after drug administration. We also measured the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) to confirm the analgesic effects of milnacipran. (3) Results: For the milnacipran groups, the decreased paw withdrawal thresholds to mechanical stimuli were significantly reversed when compared to the preadministration values and the values in the saline-injected control group (p < 0.0001). Milnacipran administration to cisplatin-induced peripheral neuropathic mice resulted in a significant suppression of neuronal ATF3 activation (p < 0.01). (4) Conclusions: Milnacipran given via IP injection attenuates mechanical allodynia in mouse models of cisplatin-induced poly-neuropathic pain. These effects were confirmed by significant suppression of neuronal ATF3 activation in the DRG. |
