Electroacupuncture reduces cold stress-induced pain through microglial inactivation and transient receptor potential V1 in mice.
Abstract
The treatment, and efficacy thereof, is considered to be inadequate with specificity to alleviation of Fibromyalgia and its associated pain. Fibromyalgia patients suffer from chronic and persistent widespread pain and generalized tenderness. Transient receptor potential V1 (TRPV1), which is reported as a Ca permeable ion channel that can be activated by inflammation, is reported to be involved in the development of fibromyalgia pain.
