Cross-Excitation in Peripheral Sensory Ganglia Associated with Pain Transmission

Cross-Excitation in Peripheral Sensory Ganglia Associated with Pain Transmission

Despite the absence of synaptic contacts, cross-excitation of neurons in sensory ganglia during signal transmission is considered to be chemically mediated and appears increased in chronic pain states. In this study, we modulated neurotransmitter release in sensory neurons by direct application of t...
