The common objective of our project is to evaluate the contribution of inflammatory mediators for the induction and control of inflammatory pain (nociceptor hipersensitization), migration/activation of leukocytes and septicaemia. Our experimental approach involves a) the temporal evaluation of the mediators released by several types of inflammatory stimuli; b) the definition of the net me…
