Inflammation is a primary defense and immune response. However, under pathological conditions, the inflammation processes always become uncontrolled and lead to chronic diseases. Bufotenine, as a natural component from toad venom, showed great potential for development as a novel anti-inflammation and analgesia agent. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of bufotenine against inflammation and pain on animal models with a focus on lipid metabolism. In pharmacological studies, bufotenine significantly inhibited the swelling rates on formalin-induced paw edema model, and increased paw withdrawal mechanical thresholds (PWMTs) in von Frey test and thermal pain thresholds (TPTs) in hot-plate test. High-sensitivity lipidomics analysis revealed the effects might be related to the down-regulation of inflammatory mediators from cyclooxygenase(COX), lipoxygenase (LOX), cytochrome P450 (CYP450), linoleic acid (LA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and other pathways. The activities might result from the binding of bufotenine and its receptors, including sigma-1 receptor and 5-Hydroxytryptamine receptor 3A, thus regulating lipid metabolism pathway. The research provided a systemic evidence for the actions and mechanism of bufotenine. It suggested that the natural compound might be a potential candidate for reducing inflammatory pain disorders.
