| Research Abstract |
In this study, involvement of activation of glial cells in the central nervous system in abnormal orofacial pain and changes in neuronal excitability following peripheral nerve injury were investigated. I observed differential activation of microglia, astroglia, and several MAP kinases, considered to be related to glial activation, in the brainstem. Differential changes in neuronal excitability in the brainstem were also observed after peripheral nerve injury.
