Optogenetic activation of GABAergic LPBN neurons alleviates neuropathic pain-like behavior without affecting basal nociception.
Optogenetic activation of glutamatergic LPBN neurons or inhibition of GABAergic LPBN neurons induces neuropathic pain-like behavior in naive mice.
Repetitive pharmacogenetic activation of glutamatergic LPBN neurons mimics development of CPN ligation-induced neuropathic pain-like hypersensitivity, whereas repetitive pharmacogenetic activation of GABAergic LPBN neurons prevents it.
A balance between excitatory and inhibitory LPBN neuronal activity governs the development and maintenance of neuropathic pain.
