Hypofunctional TrkA Accounts for the Absence of Pain Sensitization in the African Naked Mole-Rat
The naked mole-rat is a subterranean rodent lacking several pain behaviors found in humans, rats, and mice. For example, nerve growth factor (NGF), an important mediator of pain sensitization, fails to produce thermal hyperalgesia in naked mole-rats. The
