Abstract
Long-term potentiation (LTP) at synapses in the spinal dorsal horn is thought to be a cellular mechanism for abnormal pain sensitivity. In this article, we review LTP in spinal projection neurons and presynaptic mechanisms of LTP in the spinal dorsal horn revealed by patch-clamp recording and optical imaging with voltage-sensitive dye.
