Corticosterone analgesia is mediated by the spinal production of neuroactive metabolites that enhance GABA ergic inhibitory transmission on dorsal horn rat neurons

Corticosterone ( CORT ) is a glucocorticoid produced by adrenal glands under the control of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis. Circulating CORT can enter the central nervous system and be reduced to neuroactive 3α5α‐reduced steroids, which modulate GABA A receptors. In the dorsal spinal cord,...
