Although phytochemicals are plant-derived toxins that are primarily produced as a form of defense against insects or microbes, several lines of study have demonstrated that the phytochemical, quercetin, has several beneficial biological actions for human health, including antioxidant and inflammatory effects without side effects. Quercetin is a flavonoid that is widely found in fruits and vegetables. Since recent studies have demonstrated that quercetin can modulate neuronal excitability in the nervous system, including nociceptive sensory transmission via mechanoreceptors and voltage-gated ion channels, and inhibit the cyclooxygenase-2-cascade, it is possible that quercetin could be a complementary alternative medicine candidate; specifically, a therapeutic agent against nociceptive and pathological pain. The focus of this review is to elucidate the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying the modulatory effects of quercetin on nociceptive neuronal activity under nociceptive and pathological conditions, without inducing side effects. Based on the results of our previous research on trigeminal pain, we have confirmed in vivo that the phytochemical, quercetin, demonstrates (i) a local anesthetic effect on nociceptive pain, (ii) a local anesthetic effect on pain related to acute inflammation, and (iii) an anti-inflammatory effect on chronic pain. In addition, we discuss the contribution of quercetin to the relief of nociceptive and inflammatory pain and its potential clinical application. |
