An in vitro assay system for studying synapse formation between nociceptive dorsal root ganglion and dorsal horn neurons

Synapses between nociceptive dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons and spinal cord dorsal horn neurons represent the first loci for transmission of painful stimuli. Our knowledge of the molecular organization and development of these synapses is sparse due, partly, to a lack of a reliable model system...
