Background and purpose: The paragigantocellularis lateralis nucleus (LPGi) is one of the important nuclei involved in the noradrenergic descending pain modulation. 17β-Estradiol modulates nociception by binding to the estrogen receptors and also by allosteric interaction with other membrane-bound re...
