NCCIH Workshop 2020: Exploring the Mechanisms Underlying Analgesic Properties of Minor Cannabinoids and Terpenes
The overall goals of this workshop are two fold — one is to convene principal investigators funded by NCCIH on the topic of the analgesic properties of minor cannabinoids and terpenes from natural products and the underlying mechanisms; and the other is to discuss current research barriers and opportunities on this topic. This workshop is aligned with NCCIH ’ s mission to support research on the fundamental science, safety, and usefulness of complementary and integrative health approaches. Specifically, minor cannabinoids and terpenes from natural products are part of complementary interventions supported by NCCIH. The...

NIDCR Grand Rounds: Women in Science - Targeted therapy for fibrous dysplasia/McCune-Albright syndrome: Lessons learned and new approaches
Fibrous dysplasia/McCune-Albright syndrome (FD/MAS) is a mosaic disease resulting in fractures, pain, and disability. G α s mutations disrupt differentiation of skeletal stem cells, leading to marrow fibrosis and increased bone-resorbing osteoclasts. The resulting bone develops one or many expansile, deforming lesions. There are no effective treatments for FD/MAS, and clinical studies have been challenging due to knowledge gaps in pathogenesis, natural history, and clinically relevant endpoints for clinical trials. Anti-resorptive therapy with bisphosphonates has been advocated due to prominent osteoclastogenesis in FD ti...

Developing Meaningful Endpoints for Pain Clinical Trials (Day 2)
More than 25 million Americans suffer from daily chronic pain, a highly debilitating medical condition that is complex and difficult to manage. In recent decades, there has been an overreliance on the prescription of opioids for chronic pain, contributing to a significant and alarming epidemic of opioid overdose deaths and addiction. Innovative scientific solutions to develop non-opioid, non-addictive alternative treatment options are thus urgently needed.
One of the goals of the Helping to End Addiction Long-term (HEAL) Initiative is to accelerate the discovery and preclinical development of new medications and devices t...

NIH HEAL Initiative Workshop on Myofascial Pain (Day 2)
It is estimated that 30 to 85 percent of patients with musculoskeletal pain are affected by myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) — pain originating from muscles and/or associated soft tissues such as fascia. Interactions between fascia and muscles remain mostly unknown and there is a strong need to address the contributions of the myofascial tissues to chronic pain. This represents one of the last “ unturned stones ” of all the tissue types involved in musculoskeletal pain. The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health and the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering are proud to join forc...
