Targeting inhibitory neurons in the superficial dorsal horn: Somatostatin-saporin

Chatterjee K, Lemons LL, Wiley RG (2010) Targeting inhibitory neurons in the superficial dorsal horn: Somatostatin-saporin. Neuroscience 2010 Abstracts 585.1/XX15. Society for Neuroscience, San Diego, CA. Summary: Intrathecal injection of somatostatin (SST), or the long-acting congener, octreotide, have been reported analgesic in humans with intractable pain. The principal SST receptor, sst2a, is expressed by GABAergic
