Pain Relief in a Trigeminal Neuralgia Model via Optogenetic Inhibition on Trigeminal Ganglion Itself With Flexible Optic Fiber Cannula

The trigeminal ganglion (TG) is the primary site of aberration in trigeminal neuralgia (TN), and hence a crucial site where afferent input can be modulated. Here, we postulated that inhibiting TG via optogenetics using flexible optic cannula would diminish brainstem trigeminal nucleus caudalis (TNC)...
