Locus Coeruleus Noradrenergic‐Spinal Projections Contribute to Electroacupuncture‐Mediated Antinociception in Postoperative Pain in Mice

Locus Coeruleus Noradrenergic‐Spinal Projections Contribute to Electroacupuncture‐Mediated Antinociception in Postoperative Pain in Mice

Abstract Postoperative pain remains a significant challenge in healthcare. Electroacupuncture (EA) has gained polarity in helping manage surgical pain and showed beneficial effects on enhancing postoperative analgesia, decreasing opioid requirement. Despite this, the precise mechanisms underlying th...
