This paper investigates Cav1.2-dependent excitation-transcription coupling in nociceptors, showing it modulates pain sensitivity by affecting gene expression and neuronal function.

The paper introduces the Social Benefits Stress Test (SBST) to induce stress in chronic pain patients, showing it elicits measurable physiological and psychological stress responses.

This study shows that macrophage Kir2.1 modulation after nerve injury leads to TNF secretion, which sensitizes DRG neurons and contributes to neuropathic pain.
