Research Abstract |
We found that inhibitory GABAergic neurons in the trigeminal subnucleus caudalis (Sp5C) of GAD67-GFP knock-in mouse received exclusively excitatory postsynaptic inputs, and were characterized by multipolar-shaped somata. Furthermore, we showed that an analgesic action of carbamazepine resulted from the large depression of non-GABAergic neuron in the Sp5C compared with that of GABAergic neuron.
