## Abstract The present study was performed to explore the involvement of opioid receptors in the calcitonin gene‐related peptide 8‐37 (CGRP8‐37, an antagonist of CGRP receptor)‐induced inhibition of the activity of wide‐dynamic‐range (WDR) neurons in the spinal dorsal horn of rats. Extracellular r
