| Abstract | Perineural application of Nocodazole (R 17934 of Janssen Pharmaceutica), a new synthetic microtubule inhibitor, induces transganglionic degenerative atrophy of central terminals in the spinal cord of the inflicted primary sensory neurons. This drug offers new possibilities for clinical trials aiming to relieve chronic pain by subcutaneous injection of a microtubule inhibitor. |
