Abstract
These results suggest that glucocorticoid-mediated over-expression of NDRG2 may contribute to the activation of dorsal horn astrocytes, which play a crucial role in diabetic mechanical allodynia. Thus, inhibiting glucocorticoid receptors and/or astrocyte reactivity in the SDH may be a therapeutic strategy for treating diabetic tactile allodynia.
