비히스타민성 가려움증 인지에 대한 가려움증 유발 물질의 반복적 적용과 피부 유발 통증 자극의 효과
In This experiment, the investigators would like to test following hypotheses:
the pain stimulation applied at the same time of a pruriceptive stimulus will decrease the itch perception. Moreover, also the effect of the cutaneous pain stimulus location (same forearm of the pruriceptive stimulus versus the opposite forearm) on histaminergic and non-histaminergic itch will be investigated.
연구 개요
상세 설명
The phenomenon that pain inhibits pain is a well-known mechanism, but it is not known if pain is inhibiting itch. In this context, the aim of this project is to investigate the extent to which thermal or neurogenic short cutaneous pain can affect the itch perception. In particular, the project aims to understand any differences in itch perception when the painful stimulation is applied on the same forearm versus the opposite forearm. The hypothesis is that by applying a painful stimulus at the same time of an itchy stimulus, the itch sensitivity will decrease; probably due to an inhibitory process conducted by interneurons (Bhlbb5 interneuron) at central level.

실험적: Pain
A thermode stimulator of 3x3 cm will be placed on the areas and kept in place by means of Velcro tape. The temperature raises 1°C per second from a starting temperature of 32°C until itch reach or 46.5 °C. This temperature will be maintained for 2 minutes. Then the temperature will return to baseline temperature at a rate of 5°C /s. |
25 spicules will be inserted in the center of the predefined skin area on the mandibular area. The spicules will be gently rubbed for 15-20 seconds in circular motion to facilitate epidermal penetration. |
|
실험적: Capsaicin
Capsaicin patches (dosage form: transdermal patch 8% Qutenza, Astellas) will be applied on one squared area (4x4 cm2). The patch will be left in place for 20 minutes after which it will be removed. |

Assessment of itch intensity using a VAS scale
기간: 1 minute post itch provocation
|
Immediately following the itch provocations, participants will be instructed to rate the itch intensity for 10 minutes using a digital visual analogue scale (VAS; eVAS Software: Aalborg, University, Denmark), on a tablet. The scale will be measured from 0 to 100, where 0 represents 'no itch' and 100 'worst itch imaginable'. |

Retrospective rating of the pain perceived on a NRS
기간: 10 minutes post itch provocation

After 10 minutes of pruritogens application, a retrospective rating of the pain perceived from the thermal pain/capsaicin will be provided by the subject using a numeral rating scale (NRS) |

Alloknesis
기간: 12 minutes post itch provocation
|
Alloknesis sensation is measured using a standardized sensory brush (SENSELab Brush-05, Somedic AB, Hörby, Sweden) exerting a force of 200 to 400 mN. |

Mechanically evoked itch
기간: 15 minutes post itch provocation
|
Mechanically evoked itch is measured using three von Frey filaments of 4.08, 4.16 and 4.31 (1.0, 1.4, 2.0 g, respectively) (North Coast Medical, Gilroy, CA). The center of the skin area is stimulated by 3 pricks, repeated 3 times in short succession. After a total of 9 stimulations, the participants will report the itch elicited on a numerical rating scale (NRS) from 0 to 10 (0 = "no itch"; 10 = "worst imaginable itch"). |
