Increased methylation of the MOR gene proximal promoter in primary sensory neurons plays a crucial role in the decreased analgesic effect of opioids in neuropathic pain

BACKGROUND: The analgesic potency of opioids is reduced in neuropathic pain. However, the molecular mechanism is not well understood. RESULTS: The present study demonstrated that increased methylation of the Mu opioid receptor (MOR) gene proximal promoter (PP) in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) plays a c...
