Evidence for the tonic inhibition of spinal pain by nicotinic cholinergic transmission through primary afferents
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>We have proposed that nerve injury-specific loss of spinal tonic cholinergic inhibition may play a role in the analgesic effects of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) agonists on neuropathic pain. However, the tonic cholinergic...
