Jankowski Lab

Our lab is interested in peripheral mechanisms of nociceptor sensitization. We are focused on musculoskeletal and pediatric pain.

[Science Signaling @scisignal]

How does neurofibromatosis cause pain?

New work shows that #SchwannCells drive pain sensitivity in mice by secreting GDNF that activates GFR-alpha-1 on sensory neurons, which can be reversed with mirdametinib. @CincyChildrens @NamrataGRRaut @JankowskiLab https://t.co/bT1KlYZ0Zz

@JankowskiLab et al. find that, in a model of repeated ischemic injury to the muscles, sensory neuron expression of AUF1 modulates sex-specific behavioral responses and dorsal root ganglion gene expression patterns. Learn more in #PAIN https://t.co/V2UVXqHsdX
