Abstract
TNF-α participates in neuropathic pain development by facilitating the spinal TRAF2-dependent TNIK-GluR1 association, which drives GluR1-containing AMPA receptor trafficking toward the plasma membrane. In addition, F-box protein 3 modifies this pathway by inhibiting F-box and leucine-rich repeat protein 2-mediated TRAF2 ubiquitination, suggesting that protein ubiquitination contributes crucially to the development of neuropathic pain. These results provide a novel therapeutic strategy for pain relief.
