The mTOR inhibitor rapamycin suppresses trigeminal neuropathic pain and p-MKK4/p-p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase-mediated microglial activation in the trigeminal nucleus caudalis of mice with infraorbital nerve injury

Neuropathic pain caused by trigeminal nerve injury is a typical refractory orofacial chronic pain accompanied by the development of hyperalgesia and allodynia. We previously demonstrated that the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor rapamycin suppressed orofacial formalin injection-induced...
