Journal ArticleDOI

Cannabinoids suppress inflammatory and neuropathic pain by targeting α3 glycine receptors

TL;DR: Systemic and intrathecal administration of derivatives of a nonpsychoactive component of marijuana significantly suppresses chronic inflammatory and neuropathic pain, without causing analgesic tolerance, in several rodent models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spinal cord stimulation-induced analgesia: electrical stimulation of dorsal column and dorsal roots attenuates dorsal horn neuronal excitability in neuropathic rats

TL;DR: stimulation of putative spinal substrates at A-fiber intensities with parameters similar to those used by patients with spinal cord stimulators attenuated established WDR neuronal hyperexcitability in the neuropathic condition and counteracted activity-dependent increase in neuronal excitability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective keratinocyte stimulation is sufficient to evoke nociception in mice

TL;DR: It is found that keratinocyte stimulation was sufficient to induce strong expression of the neuronal activation marker, c-fos, in laminae I and II of the ipsilateral spinal cord dorsal horn and to evoke acute paw-licking nocifensive behavior and conditioned place aversion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrical stimulation of low-threshold afferent fibers induces a prolonged synaptic depression in lamina II dorsal horn neurons to high-threshold afferent inputs in mice.

TL;DR: Findings show that activities in A&bgr;-fibers lead to frequency-dependent depression of synaptic transmission in SG neurons in response to peripheral noxious inputs, which is similar to that experienced by naive mice after SNL.
