Skin cells turned into pain sensing neurons

Post by nyt »

The ability to turn skin cells into pain sensing neurons has wide implications for the ability to study the many types of pain individuals feel.

Wow, pretty amazing stuff. Hope it translates into something valuable eventually.
PNE since 2002. Started from weightlifting. PNE surgery from Dr. Bautrant, Oct 2004. Pain now is usually a 0 and I can sit for hours on certain chairs. No longer take medication for PNE. Can work full time and do "The Firm" exercise program. 99% cured from PGAD. PNE surgery was right for me but it might not be for you. Do your research.
