Local administration of resveratrol inhibits excitability of nociceptive wide-dynamic range neurons in rat trigeminal spinal nucleus caudalis

Highlights • Local resveratrol injection suppresses nociceptive SpVc WDR neuronal excitability. • Neuronal firing rates were dose-dependently inhibited by resveratrol. • The inhibitory effect of resveratrol lasted for 20 min and was reversible. • The potency of inhibition by resveratrol almost equal...

Description
Summary:Highlights • Local resveratrol injection suppresses nociceptive SpVc WDR neuronal excitability. • Neuronal firing rates were dose-dependently inhibited by resveratrol. • The inhibitory effect of resveratrol lasted for 20 min and was reversible. • The potency of inhibition by resveratrol almost equaled that of 1% lidocaine. • Resveratrol may be an effective treatment option for trigeminal pain.
