The translocator protein gene is associated with symptom severity and cerebral pain processing in fibromyalgia

Highlights • Glia activation is associated with up-regulation of TSPO in chronic pain. • Pain and fibromyalgia (FM) symptoms were associated with a TSPO polymorphism. • A TSPO/serotonin transporter gene-to-gene interaction influenced FM pain. • TSPO affected the emotional-motivational components of...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Glia activation is associated with up-regulation of TSPO in chronic pain. • Pain and fibromyalgia (FM) symptoms were associated with a TSPO polymorphism. • A TSPO/serotonin transporter gene-to-gene interaction influenced FM pain. • TSPO affected the emotional-motivational components of pain perception in FM. • TSPO may be a new target for drug development in chronic widespread pain.
