Abstract:

Dexmedetomidine is a new generation of highly selective α2 adrenergic receptor agonist, which has been widely used in perioperative anesthesia and intensive care units. Clinical and animal studies have shown that dexmedetomidine can relieve neuropathic pain, since it is associated with promoting the release of acetylcholine, reducing the release of inflammation factors and oxidative stress factors, reducing immune suppression, inhibiting cell apoptosis and glial cell activation. These findings indicate that dexmedetomidine is expected to be a new therapeutic agent for neuropathic pain.

Key words: Dexmedetomidine, Neuropathic pain, Inflammation, Oxidative stress, Glial cell
