PMID: 36131381
Background And Purpose: T-type calcium channels, mainly the Ca 3.2 subtype, are important contributors to the nociceptive signalling pathway. We investigated their involvement in inflammation and related pain-like symptoms. Experimental...

PMID: 35767616
Affective touch is necessary for proper neurodevelopment and sociability. However, it remains unclear how the neurons innervating the skin detect affective and social behaviors. The C low-threshold mechanoreceptors (C-LTMRs), a...

ACS Synth Biol
. 2018 Jul;
7(7):1685-1693.
PMID: 29975841
Nerve growth factor/tropomyosin receptor kinase A (NGF/TrkA) signaling plays a key role in neuronal development, function, survival, and growth. The pathway is implicated in neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer's disease, chronic...

98(1):90-108.e5.
PMID: 29576387
Cellular interactions between delta and mu opioid receptors (DORs and MORs), including heteromerization, are thought to regulate opioid analgesia. However, the identity of the nociceptive neurons in which such interactions...

PMID: 28993838
The functional diversity of primary afferent neurons of the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) generates a variety of qualitatively and quantitatively distinct somatosensory experiences, from shooting pain to pleasant touch. In...

Neuron
. 2017 Feb;
93(4):822-839.e6.
PMID: 28162807
Pain thresholds are, in part, set as a function of emotional and internal states by descending modulation of nociceptive transmission in the spinal cord. Neurons of the rostral ventromedial medulla...
