Objectives: We study here, in vivo, the role of P2X4 on the excitability of dorsal horn neurons
(DHNs) in naive or pathological context. Methods: We recorded DHNs in vivo in
anesthetized wild-type or P2RX4−/− mice. We measured nociceptive integration and short-
term sensitization by DHNs both in naive and inflamed mice. Results: Our results indicate
that P2X4 alter neuronal excitability only in the pathological context of peripheral
inflammation. Consequently, excitability of DHNs from inflamed P2RX4−/− mice remains …
