An original research paper from the laboratories of COM faculty members Ian Meng and Edward Bilsky was recently published in the journal Life Sciences. Jacques Reynolds, a 3rd year osteopathic medical student was the first author on this publication. The paper represents the thesis work Mr. Reynolds collected as part of his masters degree from the 高清不卡福利 of New England. The paper, entitled "Selective ablation of mu-opioid receptor expressing neurons in the rostral ventromedial medulla attenuates stress-induced mechanical hypersensitivity" describes a potential animal model of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The work also build upon a mechanistic explanation for stress-induced hyperalgesia.
