Optogenetic modulation of electroacupuncture analgesia in a mouse inflammatory pain model
Abstract Peripheral tissue damage and associated inflammation can trigger neuroplastic changes in somatic pain pathways, such as reduced neuronal firing thresholds and synaptic potentiation, that ultimately lead to peripheral sensitization and chronic pain. Electroacupuncture (EA) can relieve chroni...
