Nerve growth factor (NGF) causes a rapid sensitisation of nociceptive sensory neurones to
painful thermal stimuli owing to an action on the heat and capsaicin receptor TRPV1 …

Perforated patch clamp recordings were made from 118 voltage clamped (− 60 mV),
capsaicin-responsive dorsal root ganglion (DRG) cells (< 30 μ) maintained in dissociated …

Nerve growth factor (NGF), a member of the neurotrophin family, is crucial for survival of
nociceptive neurons during development. Recently, it has been shown to play an important …

Nociceptors, or pain‐sensitive receptors, are unique among sensory receptors in that their
sensitivity is increased by noxious stimulation. This process, called sensitization or …

Nerve growth factor (NGF) was first identified as a substance that is essential for the
development of nociceptive primary neurons and later found to have a role in inflammatory …

Nerve growth factor (NGF) is elevated in certain chronic pain conditions and is a sufficient
stimulus to cause lasting pain in humans, but the actual mechanisms underlying the …

Neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) negatively modulates nerve growth factor (NGF) receptor expression
and associated nociceptive phenotype in intact neurons, suggesting a beneficial role in …

The underlying mechanism for nerve growth factor (NGF) evoked pain and long‐lasting
mechanical hyperalgesia remains poorly understood. Using intrathecal antisense against …

Nerve growth factor (NGF) regulates the nociceptive properties including sensitivity to
capsaicin of a subset of dorsal root ganglion neurons, which express the high-affinity NGF …

Abstract Nerve-growth factor (NGF), a member of the neurotrophin family, plays an important
role in nociceptor function. Prompted by a previous unexpected finding that NT-4/5, as well …
