Research Scientist at NYU Pain Research Center, expert in pain and neuroinflammation.
📢🔬Check out our latest study on the specific role of endocytic mediators in pain-related synaptic transmission, now out in PAIN. @mariafialho.bsky.social #PainResearch #Neuroscience #SynapticTransmission
Fialho et al. find that synaptojanin 1, endophilin A1, dynamin 1, and adaptor-associated protein kinase-1 mediate synaptic vesicle recycling and neurotransmission in nociceptive circuits in the spinal cord. Learn more in #PAIN bit.ly/3WIf08B

Excited to share my first senior author paper in Pain! 🎉 We identify Synaptojanin 1 & Endophilin A1 as key endocytic mediators of nociception. Silencing them blocks spinal synaptic transmission and relieves pain in cancer & postoperative models, without affecting normal behavior.

I'm excited to share our groundbreaking findings on Neuripilin-1 and its role in NGF/TrkA pain signaling.
Neuropilin-1 (NRP1) is a co-receptor for NGF/TrkA pain signaling. Inhibiting NRP1 can reduce nociceptor activation and NGF-related pain. This important finding by the Bunnett lab and colleagues could lead to a non-opioid alternative for chronic pain treatment. www.jci.org/articles/vie...
