This study shows spared nerve injury causes long-term, brain region- and sex-specific changes in oligodendrocyte density in mice, with no effect on oligodendrocyte precursor cells.

This study shows that spared nerve injury in mice does not significantly affect negative affective behaviors in short-term tests but reveals reduced motivation for food rewards in long-term testing.

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.
