Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the effect of endothelin in orofacial pain. In the present study, the injection of endothelin-1(ET-1) at whisker pad prolonged the duration of the pain-related behavior. This result suggests that endothelin has some sort of effect for orofacial pain. Subsequently, we prepared the neuropathic pain model rat(transection・ligation).
