Neuropathic pain is a widespread and debilitating chronic pain and the treatment remains a clinical challenge. Isoorientin (3',4',5,7-tetrahydroxy-6-C-glucopyranosyl flavone) is a natural flavonoid-like compound that exhibits antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities; however, its effect on neuropathic pain remains unclear. Our study aimed to evaluate the antinociceptive effect of isoorientin in neuropathic pain mouse models induced by chronic constriction injury (CCI). In our study, the mice with CCI were administered with 7.5, 15, and, 30 mg/kg isoorientin for 8 consecutive days. Behavioral parameters were assayed on days 0, 7, 8, 10, 12, and 14 post-CCI surgery. Electrophysiological, histopathological, and biochemical indices were analyzed on day 14. Immunofluorescence was utilized to examine matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and glial cell activation, and proinflammatory cytokine expression levels were detected via Western blot. It is obvious that the treatment of Isoorientin remarkably ameliorated hyperalgesia and allodynia, increased sensory nerve conduction velocities, and restored CCI-induced sciatic nerve damage in mice. Isoorientin treatment significantly increased the total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD) and catalase (CAT) levels, and decreased the malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations. Isoorientin also suppressed MMP-9 and glial cell activation, and downregulated tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) expression levels. Therefore, this study provided a novel approach for neuropathic pain treatment and new insights into the pharmacological action of isoorientin.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D001253 Astrocytes A class of large neuroglial (macroglial) cells in the central nervous system - the largest and most numerous neuroglial cells in the brain and spinal cord. Astrocytes (from "star" cells) are irregularly shaped with many long processes, including those with "end feet" which form the glial (limiting) membrane and directly and indirectly contribute to the BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER. They regulate the extracellular ionic and chemical environment, and "reactive astrocytes" (along with MICROGLIA) respond to injury.

D012584 Sciatic Nerve A nerve which originates in the lumbar and sacral spinal cord (L4 to S3) and supplies motor and sensory innervation to the lower extremity. The sciatic nerve, which is the main continuation of the sacral plexus, is the largest nerve in the body. It has two major branches, the TIBIAL NERVE and the PERONEAL NERVE.

D016207 Cytokines Non-antibody proteins secreted by inflammatory leukocytes and some non-leukocytic cells, that act as intercellular mediators. They differ from classical hormones in that they are produced by a number of tissue or cell types rather than by specialized glands. They generally act locally in a paracrine or autocrine rather than endocrine manner. Cytokine
