The present invention provides therapeutic agents for sensory disorders represented by the following formula (1):
[wherein R
1
, R
2
, and R
3
each represent a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and X represents a linear or branched C10-C28 alkylene or alkenylene group].
The cyclohexenone long chain alcohol of the present invention improves hyperalgesia or hypoalgesia, and thus is useful as therapeutic agents for sensory disorders. Sensory disorders that can be prevented or treated by the present invention include chronic intractable pain, neurogenic pain, reduction of pain threshold caused by nerve injuries, hypesthesia or hyperesthesia caused by diabetes and nerve injuries, and the like.
本发明提供了治疗感觉障碍的治疗剂,其由以下式子(1)所代表的
环己烯酮长链醇构成:[其中R1,R2和R3分别代表氢原子或甲基基团,X代表线性或支链C10-C28烷基或烯基基团]。本发明的
环己烯酮长链醇改善了高敏性或低敏性,因此可用作治疗感觉障碍的治疗剂。本发明可以预防或治疗的感觉障碍包括慢性顽固性疼痛、神经性疼痛、由神经损伤引起的疼痛阈值降低、由糖尿病和神经损伤引起的感觉减退或过敏等。
