  • Abstract:

    Backgrounds

    Following nerve injury, down-regulation of astroglial glutamate transporters (GluTs) and subsequently extracellular glutamate accumulation is one of the factors contributing to nociceptive signaling. Some β-lactam antibiotics e.g. ceftriaxone can upregulate GluTs and display analgesic effect in  chronic pain models. Following nerve..
