Central α-adrenoceptors contribute to mustard oil-induced central sensitization in the rat medullary dorsal horn

Highlights ► Mustard oil (MO) induced central sensitization of NS neurons in MDH. ► Guanethidine and phentolamine blocked the MO-induced central sensitization. ► Prazosin significantly attenuated the MO-induced central sensitization. ► Yohimbine facilitated the responses of sensitized NS neurons. ►...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights ► Mustard oil (MO) induced central sensitization of NS neurons in MDH. ► Guanethidine and phentolamine blocked the MO-induced central sensitization. ► Prazosin significantly attenuated the MO-induced central sensitization. ► Yohimbine facilitated the responses of sensitized NS neurons. ► α1 and α2-adrenoceptors are differentially involved in MDH central sensitization.
