Abstract

Modulation of 5-HT3 receptor in the central nervous system (CNS) is a promising approach for treatment of neuropathic pain. The goal was to evaluate the role of P-glycoprotein (Pgp) in limiting exposure of different parts of the CNS to ondansetron (5-HT3 receptor antagonist) using wild-type and genetic knockout rat model.
