Spinal neurons that possess the substance P receptor are required for the development of central sensitization.

Khasabov SG, Rogers SD, Ghilardi JR, Peters CM, Mantyh PW, Simone DA (2002) Spinal neurons that possess the substance P receptor are required for the development of central sensitization. J Neurosci 22(20):9086-9098. doi: 10.1523/JNEUROSCI.22-20-09086.2002

Summary: Using 5 x 10-5 M intrathecal injections of SP-SAP (Cat. #IT-07) the authors examined the role of SPR-expressing neurons in modulation of pain and hyperalgesia. Treated animals exhibited highly attenuated sensitization to stimuli after capsaicin treatment as compared to controls, but normal responses in the absence of capsaicin
