Present-day ideas on pathogenesis of pain

Abstract

The paper provides an overview of the literature about the current pathophysiological and neurochemical aspects of pain generation and considers the matters relative to the role of glutamate receptors, nitrogen oxide, inflammation mediators, collateral sprouting, phenotype switchover phenomenon, and other mechanisms in the pain generation. The authors set out the up-to-date ideas about the role of genome in generating the pain syndrome, and prospects for the further researches.
