The paper investigates sex differences in CGRP signaling within the BNST and finds that while peptide release is sex-independent, neuromodulation of excitability shows sex-dependent features.

The paper investigates sex differences in glutamatergic signaling potentiation in CeLC neurons following CGRP release, finding greater potentiation in females than males.

The paper investigates the role of serotonin in pain modulation, finding that sustained serotonin signaling in the spinal trigeminal nucleus is pronociceptive in chronic pain models.

This study tracks parabrachial nucleus neuronal activity in awake mice during pain and shows it correlates with arousal and can be conditioned to respond to innocuous stimuli.
Yadong Ji, Chimdiya Onwukwe, Jesse L Smith…·Nathan Cramer
This study shows that norepinephrine transients in the parabrachial nucleus, induced by cNTScat input, amplify PB activity and sensory afferent responses in mice.

The paper identifies a direct trigeminal ganglion-to-parabrachial connection that processes dura inputs, suggesting a role in migraine pathogenesis.
Nathan Cramer, Gleice Kelli Silva-Cardoso, Radi M. Masri, Asaf Keller
The paper investigates how signaling pathways modulate synaptic transmission and neuronal excitability in the parabrachial nucleus, linking these changes to chronic pain mechanisms.
