CGRP receptor-expressing neurons in the central amygdala contributes to injury-induced pain hypersensitivity

This study identifies CGRPR-expressing neurons in the central amygdala as key players in pain hypersensitivity, showing their role in both injury-induced and spontaneous pain responses.

The parabrachial to central amygdala circuit is a key mediator of injury-induced pain sensitization

This study shows the PbN[->]CeA circuit contributes to injury-induced pain hypersensitivity but not baseline nociception in mice.

Bidirectional modulation of pain-related behaviors in the zona incerta

This study identifies an inhibitory neural circuit from CeA-PKCδ neurons to the zona incerta that bidirectionally modulates pain-related behaviors in mice.

A parabrachial-to-amygdala circuit that determines hemispheric lateralization of somatosensory processing

The paper identifies a parabrachial-to-amygdala circuit mediated by CGRP that drives hemispheric lateralization of visceral pain processing in mice.
