Electrophysiological evidence about sexual dimorphism in the clonidine-induced inhibition of trigeminal wide dynamic range cell activity [PDF]
Background The trigeminal system plays a key role in headaches pathophysiology. In this regard, nociceptive experiments in male rodents have shown that at the trigeminal level, clonidine induces antinociception through α2A- but not α2B/2C-adrenoceptors ...
