Abstract

Lesions or diseases affecting the somatosensory system cause neuropathic pain, a debilitating chronic pain condition. From our recent study using a mouse model of neuropathic pain, CD11c+ microglia that appear in the spinal cord after nerve injury are important cells required for the pain remission. In this article, we review the transition of microglial states after nerve injury and the allostatic control mechanisms of neuropathic pain by CD11c+ microglia.
