## Abstract Neuropathic pain is an expression of pathological operation of the nervous system, which commonly results from nerve injury and is characterized by pain hypersensitivity to innocuous stimuli, a phenomenon known as tactile allodynia. The mechanisms by which nerve injury creates tactile a
Changes in neurotransmitter systems of the spinal cord were studied in response to peripheral nerve injury. The uptake and compartmentalization of radiolabeled spinal cord neurotransmitters and transmitter precursors were examined as a function of time following unilateral sciatic nerve crush in adu
Chronic axotomy of a peripheral motor nerve in cat causes a gradual reduction in the number of intramedullary axon collaterals originating from the axotomized motoneurons (Havton and Kellerth 1984, 1989). This axon collateral elimination would be expected to reduce the amount of recurrent inhibitory
