Neuropathic pain is a refractory disease characterized by maladaptive changes in gene transcription and translation in the sensory pathway. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as new players in gene regulation, but how lncRNAs operate in the development of neuropathic pain is unclear. Here, researchers from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine identify a conserved lncRNA, named Kcna2 antisense ...
