Research Abstract |
Administration of substance P into locus coeruleus, a nucleus constituting descending noradrenergic neurons, attenuated neuropathic pain via NK1 receptor activation. In addition, administration of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) into the locus coeruleus persistently attenuated the neuropathic pain. These analgesic effects were mediated by noradrenergic descending inhibition.
