A Chemogenetic Therapy for Neuropathic Pain
Invention Summary:
Neuropathic pain (NP) typically arises as a consequence of a lesion or disease affecting peripheral nerve fibers. Prominent features in the pathophysiology of neuropathic pain include increased, ectopic neuronal activity in pain pathways. In general, NP is frequently refractory to conventional analgesics and currently there are...
