Lack of evidence for central sensitization in idiopathic, non-traumatic neck pain : a systematic review [PDF]
, 2015 Background: Chronic neck pain is a common problem with a poorly understood pathophysiology. Often no underlying structural pathology can be found and radiological imaging findings are more related to age than to a patient's symptoms.

Sensitization of neonatal rat lumbar motoneuron by the inflammatory pain mediator bradykinin
eLife, 2015 Bradykinin (Bk) is a potent inflammatory mediator that causes hyperalgesia. The action of Bk on the sensory system is well documented but its effects on motoneurons, the final pathway of the motor system, are unknown.

Advancing the Understanding of Acupoint Sensitization and Plasticity Through Cutaneous C-Nociceptors
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022 Acupoint is the key area for needling treatment, but its physiology is not yet understood. Nociceptors, one of the responders in acupoints, are responsible for acupuncture manipulation and delivering acupuncture signals to the spinal or supraspinal level.
