Inhibition of neuronal FLT3 receptor tyrosine kinase alleviates peripheral neuropathic pain in mice
Sensitisation of dorsal root ganglia neurons contributes to neuropathic pain. Here the authors demonstrate the cytokine FL contributes to sensitisation of DRGs via its receptor FLT3 expressed on neurons, and identify a novel FLT3 inhibitor that attenuates neuropathic pain in mice.
