PPAR γ Prevents Neuropathic Pain by Down-Regulating CX3CR1 and Attenuating M1 Activation of Microglia in the Spinal Cord of Rats Using a Sciatic Chronic Constriction Injury Model
BackgroundPrevious studies have proved that peripheral nerve injury is involved in the pathogenesis of neuropathic pain (NP). The peripheral nerve injury primes spinal M1 microglia phenotype and produces pro-inflammatory cytokines, which are responsible for neurotoxic and neuronal hyper-excitable ou...
