Contribution of TRPV1 Receptor–Expressing Fibers to Spinal Ventral Root After-Discharges and Mechanical Hyperalgesia in a Spared Nerve Injury (SNI) Rat Model

Neuropathic pain induces allodynia and hyperalgesia. In the spared nerve injury (SNI) model, marked mechanical hyperalgesia is manifested as prolongation of the duration of paw withdrawal after pin stimulation. We have previously reported that spinal ventral root discharges (after-discharges) after...
