Morgado C, Silva L, Pereira-Terra P, Tavares I
Neurobiol Dis . 2011 Apr; 43(1):275-84. PMID: 21515376
Painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN) induces neuronal hyperactivity at the spinal cord and periaqueductal gray (PAG), a key area in descending nociceptive modulation. Since the PAG uses relay stations at serotoninergic...

Morgado C, Terra P, Tavares I
Eur J Pain . 2010 Jan; 14(7):693-9. PMID: 20056558
Painful diabetic neuropathy may be due to impairments in descending modulation of nociceptive transmission at the spinal cord. In the present study, streptozotocin diabetic rats (STZ rats) with neuropathic symptoms...
