• Satellite Glial Cells in Pain Research: A Targeted Viewpoint of Potential and Future Directions 

      Gazerani, Parisa (Frontiers in Pain Research;volume 2, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-03-10)
      Chronic pain is known to be caused by sensitization within the pain circuits. An imbalance occurs between excitatory and inhibitory transmission that enables this sensitization to form. In addition to neurons, the contribution ...
    • Short-Term Functional and Morphological Changes in Primary Cultures of Trigeminal Ganglion Cells 

      Pires Veríssimo, Carla; Filha, Lionete Gall Acosta; da Silva, Fábio Jorge Moreira; Westgarth, Harrison; Aguia, Juliana De Mattos Coelho; Pontes, Bruno; Moura-Neto, Vivaldo; Gazerani, Parisa; DosSantos, Marcos Fabio (Current Issues in Molecular Biology;Volume 44 / Issue 3, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-03-08)
      Several studies have proved that glial cells, as well as neurons, play a role in pain patho-physiology. Most of these studies have focused on the contribution of central glial cells (e.g., microglia and astrocytes) to ...
