In the present study, the effect of chromaffin cell transplant in the spinal cord was evaluated on formalin-induced mechanical secondary allodynia in the rat. Chromaffin cells were transplanted into the lumbar subarachnoid space before or after formalin injection. Subcutaneous formalin injection (50μl, 1%) produced long-lasting secondary allodynia in the ipsilateral and contralateral hind paws. Once...
Abnormal sensory hyperexcitability consequent to peripheral injury most likely involves activation of N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors in the spinal cord. This activation may lead to a cascade of neuroplastic events resulting in the exaggeration of sensory responses and the persistence of pathological pain states. Recent studies in our laboratory have demonstrated that the transplantation of...
