Different immune cells mediate pain hypersensitivity in male and female mice
About (English version):
A large literature has demonstrated the important role of spinal microglia in chronic pain processing. This paper demonstrates that microglia are required in male but not female mice. In female mice, a similar function appears to be subserved by adaptive immune cell, likely T lymphocytes.
