Loss of inhibitory tone on spinal cord dorsal horn spontaneously and nonspontaneously active neurons in a mouse model of neuropathic pain

Abstract: Plasticity of inhibitory transmission in the spinal dorsal horn (SDH) is believed to be a key mechanism responsible for pain hypersensitivity in neuropathic pain syndromes. We evaluated this plasticity by recording responses to mechanical stimuli in silent neurons (nonspontaneously active [NSA]) and neurons showing ongoing activity (spontaneously active [SA]) in the SDH of control and nerve-injured mice (cuff model). The SA and NSA neurons represented 59% and 41% of recorded neurons, respectively, and were pre… Show more

“…However, we first performed a set of recordings of lamina II neurons in transverse slices, in order to put our results in context with the literature, mostly focusing on this layer. Indeed, while the cuff model of mouse peripheral neuropathy has been well described in behavioral terms (Benbouzid, et al, 2008; Yalcin, Bohren, et al, 2011), we were the first to analyze the plasticity occurring in the spinal cord with electrophysiology in vivo (Medrano, Dhanasobhon, Yalcin, Schlichter, & Cordero-Erausquin, 2016) and now in vitro . Recordings were performed in the ipsilateral (to cuff insertion) DH in the presence of 0.5 μM TTX (Fig.…”

“…Neurons were selected for their localization in the DH (Fig. 7A) and their response to mechanical stimulation of the hindpaw, either non-nociceptive (touch) and/or nociceptive (pinch) (see methods and (Medrano, et al, 2016)). Local application of 100 μM mecamylamine (on the spinal cord) induced an increased response to mechanical stimulation in neurons recorded from both sham and cuff mice (Fig.…”
