Identification of neurons expressing thyrotropin releasing-hormone receptor mRNA in spinal cord and lower brainstem of rat.

abstract：:Antidepressants such as tricyclic antidepressants, and serotonin noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors are a first-line treatment for neuropathic pain. Here, we aimed to determine the involvement of the spinal dopaminergic system in the antihyperalgesic effects of antidepressants in a rat model of neuropathic pain induced...
