Presynaptic glycine receptors as a potential therapeutic target for hyperekplexia disease
The authors show that a nonpsychoactive cannabinoid, DH-CBD, can rescue exaggerated acoustic startle phenotypes caused by startle disease–causing point mutations in the glycine receptor (GlyR) α1 subunit. Homo...

G9a is essential for epigenetic silencing of K+ channel genes in acute-to-chronic pain transition
Chronic neuropathic pain is associated with K+ channel downregulation in primary sensory neurons. The authors show that G9a, a histone-modifying enzyme, is required for transcriptional repression of K+ channel–as...

Presynaptic NMDA receptors control nociceptive transmission at the spinal cord level in neuropathic pain
Chronic neuropathic pain is a debilitating condition that remains challenging to treat. Glutamate N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonists have been used to treat neuropathic pain, but the exact sites of...
