Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for preventing, ameliorating, or treating neuropathic pain, comprising syringaresinol or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient. The composition of the present invention may be administered to a subject for which administration of an anticancer agent is scheduled or to which an anticancer agent has been administered, or to a subject which has suffered peripheral nerve damage, to thereby prevent, ameliorate, or treat neuropathic pain.

Abstract: When used as an active ingredient, bornyl acetate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof according to the present invention exhibits the effects of alleviating behavioral scales in an animal model, inhibiting the activation of microglia and the generation of inflammatory factors (COX-2 and iNOS), and lowering nerve excitability for responsiveness to cell-neural stimuli. Thus, bornyl acetate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is found to have an excellent stress modulating potential and to be useful for the prevention and treatment of stress-related diseases, especially, depression, thereby finding advantageous applications in related industries.
