Mu opioid receptors gate the locus coeruleus pain generator

Makenzie R. Norris, Chao‐Cheng Kuo, Samantha S. Dunn, Jenny R. Kim, Léa J. Becker, Gustavo Borges, Loc V. Thang, Kyle E. Parker, Jordan G. McCall

This study identifies mu opioid receptors in the locus coeruleus as critical regulators of pain, showing they gate the LC's role as a pain generator through bidirectional modulation of hyperalgesia.
