Abstract:
:Lumbar cerebrospinal fluid levels of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid, which are used as indicators of central nervous system serotonergic neuronal activity, were significantly higher in 67 patients with chronic pain and in 32 patients with acute pain (23.6 +/- 3.3 and 23.1 +/- 3.8, respectively) than in 30 patients (8.8 +/- 1.7) who had no pain. However, there was no correlation between levels of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid in patients with chronic or acute pain, nor between groups of patients with chronic pain whose pain mechanisms were of psychogenic, sympathetic, somatic, or central origin, based on their responses to differential spinal block; there was also no correlation between levels of depression, as evaluated by the Zung scale, in patients with different types of chronic pain, even though all of these patients were depressed. The elevated levels of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid in the depressed patients with chronic pain are not consistent with previous studies on the etiology and types of chronic pain. As recent research indicates that the perception of pain may be modulated by endogenous analgesic systems involving enkephalin and serotonin (5-HT), this study was undertaken to clarify the association between 5-HT activity and nociception. Our findings did show a link between acute noxious stimulation and central increases in serotonergic activity. However, we could not differentiate between pain mechanisms and degree of depression. Our studies did indicate that, because of both the persistence of pain complaints and the increased levels of brain 5-HT activity, the endogenous analgesic systems are not totally effective as natural inhibitors of pain. Furthermore, the increased depression and continued pain in the presence of elevated 5-HT activity in patients with chronic pain may represent a tolerance or decreased responsiveness to 5-HT.
