Descending serotonergic facilitation and the antinociceptive effects of pregabalin in a rat model of osteoarthritic pain

BACKGROUND: Descending facilitation, from the brainstem, promotes spinal neuronal hyperexcitability and behavioural hypersensitivity in many chronic pain states. We have previously demonstrated enhanced descending facilitation onto dorsal horn neurones in a neuropathic pain model, and shown this to...
