Genetic contributions to clinical pain and analgesia: avoiding pitfalls in genetic research.

Abstract excerpt

UNLABELLED: Understanding the genetic basis of human variations in pain is critical to elucidating the molecular basis of pain sensitivity, variable responses to analgesic drugs, and, ultimately, to individualized treatment of pain and improved public health. With the help of recently accumulated knowledge and advanced technologies, pain researchers hope to gain insight into genetic mechanisms of pain and...
