Already from the beginning of scientists trying to find the killer drug pain (pain killer) is a natural. Pain killer drug is very useful for those who suffer from cancer, pain, and inflammatory diseases.The pain caused by the disease make the patients feel pain and chronic pain, this is where the role of pain killer drug use. Pain killer drug is not intended to heal the pain, but to reduce the pain.
Scientists study the chili to help them create a pain killer that will stop the pain at its source. This research was conducted by a team from the University of Texas. They found that when the body is injured, the body will issue a similar chemical called capsaicin metabolites oxidized linoleic acid (OLAMs) which will be captured by the receptors in the brain as pain. capsaicin, found in chili peppers.
This substance that usually makes us spiciness or heat, and this substance was found at the site of pain. This team have reported their discovery research and the newest to the Journal of Clinical Investigation.
Dr. Kenneth Hargreaves, senior researcher, and his team tried to examine whether the delivery of these messages can be inhibited. Research on laboratory rats showed, by eliminating this receptor gene, body's sensitivity to capsaicin is reduced. This means, the pain will not really considered.
This team was formed to see if they can find new ways to stop the pain. The team is hoping to be able to continue their research and create a drug that can treat various types of pain, including cancer and inflammatory diseases such as fibromyalgia and arthritis.
