Silencing a Specific Set of Neurons Prevents Itching Not Controllable by Antihistamine Treatment
Itching in response to release of histamine is modulated by a set of neurons that is functionally distinct from that modulating itching not related to histamine, and these two sets of neurons can be selectively targeted and silenced. More...17 Jun 2013
