Differential Spinal Cord Gene Expression in Rodent Models of Radicular and Neuropathic Pain
25 May 2006
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Neuropathic pain and radicular low back pain both have a major impact on human health worldwide. Microarray gene analysis on central nervous system tissues holds great promise for discovering novel targets for persistent pain modulation. METHODS: Rat models of lumbar radiculopathy (L5 nerve root ligation) and neuropathy (L5 spinal nerve transection) were used for these studies. The authors measured...
