Cells of the mouse dorsal root ganglion. Cold sensing sensory neurons are small cells and are stained with HCR in situ hybridisation probes against TRPM8 mRNA

It's #fluorescencefriday so here are some lovely TRMP8-expressing cold-sensing sensory neurons in a mouse DRG. DAPI nuclei in green and TRPM8 mRNA in magenta.

1/ 🧠 Excited to share our new preprint:

Convergent state-control of endogenous opioid analgesia

We uncover how cognitive + contextual factors—like injury, fear, and placebo—modulate pain through dynamic opioid signaling in the periaqueductal gray (PAG)

Anatomical characterisation of somatostatin-expressing neurons belonging to the anterolateral system Anterolateral system (ALS) spinal projection neurons are essential for pain perception. However, these cells are heterogeneous, and there has been extensive debate about the roles of ALS populations i...

Seems like a good idea to move over to here! What better way to start than our new preprint.... Anatomy of a fascinating molecularly defined subset of spinal projection neurons......
