The paper examines PRLR isoform expression in human dorsal root ganglia, finding higher PRLR-L (ΔS1) expression in females and reduced expression in females with chronic pain.

This study examines the anatomical changes in the human lumbar spinal dorsal horn in relation to chronic lower limb pain and finds no association with neuronal density or inhibitory neuron loss.

This paper introduces a method to preserve human dorsal root ganglion neurons using Hibernate media, enabling easier access and transport for research.

This study shows that type I interferons increase excitability of human dorsal root ganglion nociceptors and sensitize TRPV1, contributing to pain.

The paper examines sex differences in the epigenomic landscape of human dorsal root ganglia, identifying sex-specific chromatin accessibility and transcription factor binding patterns associated with nociceptive gene regulation.

The paper shows vinorelbine induces neuropathic pain-like state in mice through STING and MNK1 signaling linked to type I IFN induction in DRG neurons.
