ATP mediates neuropathic pain of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder via microglial activation


ABSTRACT: Intractable neuropathic pain is recognized as a common symptom of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). However, the underlying mechanism of NMOSD pain remains to be elucidated. Here, we established NMOSD pain model by injecting anti-AQP4 recombinant autoantibodies (AQP4-Ab) generated from NMOSD patient’s plasmablasts into rat spinal cords and confirmed the development of mechanical allodynia. AQP4-Ab mediated extracellular ATP release from astrocytes and pharmacological inhibition of ATP receptor reversed mechanical allodynia in NMOSD pain model. Furthermore, transcriptome analysis revealed microglia activation and IL-1β elevation in NMOSD spinal cord. Inhibition of microglia activation and neutralization of IL-1β also attenuated neuropathic pain in NMOSD rat model. In addition, the human CSF ATP concentration was significantly higher in the acute and remission phase of NMOSD than in multiple sclerosis and other neurological disorder patients. These findings indicate ATP, microglial activation and IL-1β secretion orchestrates the pathogenesis of NMOSD neuropathic pain.
