Criticality and degeneracy in injury-induced changes in primary afferent excitability and the implications for neuropathic pain

Neuropathic pain remains notoriously difficult to treat despite numerous drug targets. Here, we offer a novel explanation for this intractability. Computer simulations predicted that qualitative changes in primary afferent excitability linked to neuropathic pain arise through a switch in spike initi...
