Abstrakt: Investigates the mechanisms through which extravasated neutrophils become involved in mediating the thermal hyperalgesia induced by nerve growth factor (NGF). Failure of the hyperalgesia induced NGF to directly activate neutrophils; Manner in which NGF induces neutrophil accumulation in the rat and mouse; Stimulation of neutrophil accumulation and thermal hyperalgesia.
