NGF-mediated photoablation of nociceptors reduces pain behavior in mice

Linda Nocchi, Carla Portulano, Federica Franciosa…·Paul A. Heppenstall

This paper describes a method to selectively photoablate nociceptors in mice using a modified NGF ligand and NIR light, reducing pain behaviors in multiple pain models.

Control of mechanical pain hypersensitivity through ligand-targeted photoablation of TrkB positive sensory neurons

Rahul Dhandapani, Cynthia Mary Arokiaraj, Francisco José Taberner…·Paul A. Heppenstall

This study identifies TrkB-expressing sensory neurons as key to mechanical allodynia and demonstrates their ablation as a treatment for neuropathic pain.
