The translation of new injectable anaesthetic drugs from rodent to humans remains slow, despite the realisation that reliance on the volatile agents is unsustainable from an environmental perspective. The aim of this study was to investigate the infl...

Gainfully employing descending controls in acute and chronic pain management (2018)
Journal Article
White, K., Targett, M., & Harris, J. (2018). Gainfully employing descending controls in acute and chronic pain management. Veterinary Journal, 237, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tvjl.2018.05.005

Specific primary afferent fibres termed nociceptors are responsible for transmitting nociceptive information. Centrally the axonal terminals of these fibres synapse with secondary projection neurones in the spinal dorsal horn to transmit nociceptive...
